Overall, I feel that group 1 did a pretty good job with their presentation. Copyright laws can be confusing for anyone, so to try to explain them in a short period of time to a group of people who knows very little about them as well is no easy task. As far as postmodernity goes, their connection to it was a little weak in my opinion because just because there are new ways of sharing things and new ways of stealing things, such as music, does not mean that it is postmodern.
I am in agreement that these new ways of stealing make it easier for people to get away with it, and that this is the reason why we se so much more of it nowadays. Things in the field of stealing music and copyright laws are evolving just like anything else in life is evolving.
I think that the way the presentation was given could have been a little better and more organized. I think that the use of both video and powerpoint is good, but to switch back and forth so many times was not ideal in my opinion. I also think that they focused a little too much on music and not as much on copyright laws as applied to everything.
1)Do you feel that copyright laws should be weaker, stronger, or are they good as they are now?
2)The penalties for copyright infringment are pretty harsh, do you think they should be weakened, strengthened, or left alone?
