Now you may argue that BW is merely the canvas on which players such as Boxer and NaDa have painted masterpieces, but the law (in the U.S.) is on Blizzard's side. Not only does Blizzard have a right to the actual code of the game, it also has a potential property right in all possible visuals and other media that flow from the code (ex. the actual games that you see on tv). | ||

I see no new ideas in this, it's just the old talking-points wrapped up in elegant writing and metaphor. | ||

The thing with the analogy is the paint is a relatively cheap and easy element to find or replace, and there has never been a situation when artists had to completely stop their work if they can't buy a specific brand of paint. Meanwhile Starcraft is far ahead of any other eSport games and the entire progaming industry totally relies on it. | ||
