One reason I can't abide by the concept of property is the notion that one "owns" something like "The Christmas Song" (or, for that matter, my own plot of land). I myself "own" land, but I am daily fearful that something will take it from me.

Good on you, Mr. McCartney, but I for one don't experience music in terms of ownership.

Let me recommend my cataloging professor's book about these kinds of issues. It is Elaine Svenonius, The Intellectual Foundation of Information Organization (MIT Press 2000). Even though (or perhaps because) it appeared early on in the Web age, it gets to the heart of questions about what needs to be clicked and what not. Sir Tim Berners-Lee woiuldn't get it, nor would Brin or Page; they are blindered.
