Um debate ainda desconhecido no Brasil opõe o ministro e compositor Gilberto Gil à sua gravadora, a Warner. A disputa envolve algo muito mais importante que cifras em contratos. Gil participa do esforço para levar adiante a Creative Commons, uma rede mundial de autores que buscam alternativas para viver de suas obras, sem transformá-las em exclusividade da indústria cultural. Lawrence Lessig, professor de Direito da Universidade de Stanford e um dos %u201Cpais%u201D da Creative Commons, descreveu a polêmica num artigo para o jornal norte-americano Chicago Tribune.

Could you give me a quick overview of the goals of this project? It started as an experiment to see if our search could be used on e-mail. And in fact, it was originally applied to my e-mail. I get a lot of e-mail%u2014I have many gigabytes of it, and it's hard to manage. I have all the same challenges as everybody out there, and I found that having effective search, having large storage, having the kind of threading that we've done here%u2014all those things make me more efficient with my e-mail. And that's what I then decided that we should make available to the entire world.
