There is a movie called "Rip!, a remix manifesto" in which a common topic is discussed, the topic of copyright issues. In the movie the debate goes over the each part of the topic including "fair use" and many other issues. Basically the movie explains the concept of fair use very well but they also cover other topics such as fines and bylaws with the help of professionals, people that have been fined and people at concerts. The main speaker during the movie is unbiased to an extent as he sees both sides of the argument and even talks to people from both sides such as the "Mouse Liberation Front". The author of the movie even came up with the "remixers manifesto" which summed up the issue in a few points such as "culture always builds on the past" or "the world is becoming less creative".
The author is unbiased because for every discussion he points out the pros and cons of both sides, for example if I create a song and make money off it, I don't want people using my idea to profit but I still want culture to build off old ideas. The author even talks about how it is fair to want to protect ideas but he still persists with the idea of sharing for the future. In his argument he covers many points of each idea, every so often going back to the manifesto to finish or make a point. The movie is very effective at explaining the argument but in the end it ends up being against the copyright and more or less praising the 'Left copyright'.
Overall the movie accomplishes its goals of explaining the laws and concepts of copyright with minimal bias.
I personally agree to the idea of fair use because the creators should profit off of their creation but i disagree to the copyright fines for such small offences like downloading free music. I like the idea of sharing but still i agree to limiting use so that your idea remains yours to profit from, in a nutshell i think that people should share their ideas but not let people steal them.
