Media products in the age of free digital reproduction

Abstract

New communication technologies enabled the copying of intellectual work. The Internet is favorable for breeding because of their interactive nature. The fluidity of the web makes the screening and the punishment of anyone who violates the copyright. In culture media, the law of copyright is ineffective and there is difficulty in pointing normative solutions that cover the new behavior of consumption. We want to show how these processes media are reconfiguring the relationship between individual and cultural products and between work and industry.
