Very interesting!
Currently, I can only think (hey, its 7am around here!) of microstock photography, of which Alamy is one of the most reputed AND based in the UK.
If you offer photography - or video or vector graphics and even audio - the files are stripped off of the metadata that I have wrote in, including my copyright notice. Surely, this is fair in regard of any conflict of interest, since buyers could contact me directly and steal their business. But then again, for the rest of the world, the photo (or whatever) is associated with my screen name and I practically lose any chance for proper credit, let alone if I pass away, which is not specified in any microstock contracts that I have seen.
I'm not saying this is "wrong" - its Da Rules in microstock, take it or leave it - but I feel this is an issue in connection with IP.
