Are you sure we are talking about the same book? I know this book very
very well and I recall no wild assumptions and no lumping together.
Kinsella's position on IP is extremely clear and very well formulated. There
must be some misunderstanding there. In case you are interested, we can
connect by email and discuss this, but his approach is to look at property rights.
It applies to music very well.

I've read most of this book, and I think he makes some pretty radical
"assumptions" about things which are mostly irrelevant when dealing with
music.  He seems to try to lump everything in with scientific
discoveries (boiling water to kill germs) or math functions (E=mc^2),
and comparisons to hard goods which may have limited quantities.

I'm going to read your writings and links on the subject so I can see
what your thoughts are on it.
