Re: [linux-audio-user] so.... u wish to hear something completely horrible

Music/Art is NO "IP" it is something personal that belongs to the creator by law of nature. Software is very much different - it is abstract and has to follow deterministic rules that are set by machinedesign, compilerrules, maths etc. so if you implement a feature for w computer by means of coding you have to follow rules that are made by a community of founders, that follow logical determination also - you do not "create" features in software - you rearrange things that have been done before - a bit similar to the work with records that are made to be mixed by DJs, or with loops that where recorded with the sole intention to be used with samplers.
