In Lessig’s book he talks about the manga market and how
piracy is a big thing in Japan over manga. He talks about though, how the
piracy is actually benefitting the market and is making it more productive
(Lessig pg. 27). With more people hearing, seeing and purchasing manga this
way, the more it becomes popular and the more it is wanted. This can even be
beneficial to the copyright owners because people will want more of it. It
would be interesting to see what would happen if the piracy would stop all of a
sudden.
