Intellectual Property Values: What Do Musicians Talk About When They Talk About Copyright? by John Street and Tom Phillips explores the attitudes of musicians for whom music is not their main source of income, specifically in terms of how they think and talk about copyright. It considers how aspiring musicians think about ‘music’, about themselves as musicians and about the relationship between copyright and wider social values.
