    Re: Totally Incorrect Logic (as lawdawg)

    This Kinko's example is completely misplaced and shows what happens when someone just barfs out comments without knowing the details. To answer your question based on actual knowledge of the case - if you go into Kinkos and ask them to make a reproduction of a poster that has a copyright notice on it or that is obviously a copyright protected poster, then Kinkos actually knows not to accept that order. I challenge you to try. Now, let's say that Kinkos does take the order and makes the poster. Let's say that Greg Young learns about it and tells Kinkos to stop doing it. Now let's says Kinkos keeps printing Greg Young posters after being told to stop. Is that willful copyright infringement? You betcha. That's what Zazzle did. Not a stupid outcome. The right outcome.
