Reflections on Copyright

I thought the Disney video on YouTube was cute. It was jab towards Disney using their own words against while citing each movie as a source. I think it was a controversial move but yet a clever statement. If I created a successful idea, I certainly wouldn't want anyone deliberately earning money on it, especially if it was directly on my authentic works. On the other side of the coin, I think all new ideas and concepts evolved from an established idea and it takes one established idea to sprout new ones. So in some ways copyright restricts possible new ideas that could spawn creativity.
