    This once again shows how stupid the idea of copyright is.

    The mentioned library genesis project is such a great idea and i use it extensively. It makes scientific articles, papers and cultural works available for everyone, regardless of income.

    I understand where these writers are coming from but in my opinion they are working against their own interests here.

    I mean currently most of the profits go to the big media coorperations anyway, are we sure ther isn’t a way to fairly pay the artists AND make their works publicly available at the same time?
