From what i gather in Canada you can download but not upload music. Does this mean that in Canada the vidoeos on sites like youtube are legal to watch and download? but not in the USA?

That's a core idea of the whole Creative Commons movement. On the question of quality, that's a great topic. One effort at identifying "quality" user-generated content is toptensources.com. There are lots of other efforts. My colleague Urs Gasser, a prof at the University of St. Gallen, and others have been doing great work on the problem of information quality. It's a hard problem, but a worthwhile one to study and work on. Thanks much for your comment! -JP Thanks, Elias — I couldn’t agree more that the basis here should be not only that people want to make money off of content, but also that some people create works so that they can share them.

In my opinion, content meant to be free but then comes the quality question. How qualitative can we get things done when it is totally free. Well, at least you can get to the mass population ( Elias Canetti ). Thanks. Hello Professor,
