Wonder if I can get them to make a black market copy in 1/16th? ;D

Do you think someone gave them you file you sent to be printed?
Wonder what they are doing about the glass?

The proportions are different than mine, but it is clearly based on the ones I did.

Certainly 3D file theft will be the new music file issue soon. Of course I didn't read the Print A Part or Shapeways terms and conditions when I signed up (who does?) so I don't know who really owns my files once they are sent. Could be the way record deals used to be made and the songwriter wound up with nothing.

Typically in music the musician gets money for the session and the record company keeps whatever income the album earns. (Even though the contract may give the musician a share, creative bookkeeping ensures he never sees it.) In the case of big names, the terms might grant a larger split to the "artist". Similarly, until recently, the record company retained at least part of the music copyright. Recent legislation protects the corporations far more than the artists.

On the other hand, print service bureaus and printing companies have no legal right to what publishers send them. So it's hard to say what will happen with 3-D printing.
