To me, being an amateur is to make art for the sake of art. and being a 
pro its just a job.

If you're right, for similar reasons, maybe also coding software and 
releasing it as open source should be a middle-class luxury. Is this the 
case? I don't think so.

And anyway, how does this thread about copyright and open source relate 
to being an amateur?
