Copyright is the legal method to limit redistribution of easily copied material, not as if there’s anything else people could appeal to.
I ain’t a fan of copyright but make it last 10 years instead of X + infinity and maybe it’s not so bad. I can’t argue against copyright fully as I think copyleft is essential for software.
