I still might choose to take a picture of my buddy's cool drawing that he bought rather than buying my own copy. Though I agree that I am certainly not entitled to a free print at the author's expense.

Conversely, if I bought that drawing myself and it came with reflective glass glued to the front, so that pictures turned out blurry, I might be a little annoyed. Now I can't roll it up and put it with my other drawings without special accommodations. Also, I bought it and if I want to take a picture of it or wipe my ass with it then that is my choice. Making the life of your customers more difficult so you can make a little extra money is going to lose you some of those customers.

Not that I begrudge someone for making good money, but that dude said he is making $40k a month from his Patreon for DLSS3 mods. Does he really feel like he isn't get paid what his time was worth, or is he just getting greedy in a community that is usually more aligned with FOSS concepts?
