Re: [microsound] microsound vs. DJ culture

["tobias c. van Veen" <tobias@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, the entire quote notes this paradox:

"After all, it is more Marx than Marx: property in remix culture,
theoretically at least, is a shared kind of "resource" (although the
reality, as I've recently written elsewhere, is far more along the lines of
wanting to have one's cake and eat it too -- owning a remix, etc. -- there
is much work to be done, I feel, in seeing where this is leading us...)."

However, as Bas notes, there is also something of collectivity here.
