Introduction

The Technological Shock

The technological shock, caused by New Technologies and theInternet:

introduces digital goods, that seems to be similar tocommon goods (non-rival and non-excluable)

allows new actors to across the economic and technicalbarriers and to create new contents (“Open Video”)

Introduction

Formal Institution

All organization structures are based on Formal Institutions:

understandable

accepted

shared

Creative Commons licenses represent the Formal Institution

Hypothesis 1

H1 For-Profit creators tend to use a high degree of openness inboth production and diffusion

Because of their legal status they are not able to attractinterest and contribution from community

Hypothesis 2

H2 Non-Profit creators tend to use a high degree of opennessonly in diffusion

Because of their legal status they are already able to attractinterest and contribution from the community

Hypothesis 3

H3 Informal creators tend to use a low degree of openness only indiffusion

Because they need to attract interest and contribution fromthe community, but they still keep the possibility tocommercialize the content

Constructing The Sample

The Internet Archive

Creation of Original Database of video in CC from IA

Investigation in February 2010

Why IA? Because of CC advices (web and tool)

I drop items:

because of not detailed informations (license/creator/year)created before the 2003 (because the first CC was used inDecember 2002)

Total items analyzed: 999

Informal. This dummy variable checks the absence of legal stat.

For-profit. This dummy variable checks the FP legal status

Non-profit. This dummy variable checks the NP legal status

Public. This dummy variable checks if is a PA

...Public Administrations tend to use the higter degree of openness, beacuse of law

For-Profit and Informal tend to adopt a degree of openness in production highter that Non-Profit

Background Hypotheses Database Analysis Conclusions

Hypotheses

Hypothesis 1 is confirmedFor-Profit creators are more likely to adopt a high degree ofopenness in both production and diffusionWe interpret this founding as the result of the intent:

to be more attractive sharing the control of the productionprocess and than to benefit from contribution of people whoare motivated by extrinsic non-monetary and intrinsicmotivationsto maximize the diffusion in order to increase the contributions

Hypotheses

Hypothesis 2 is confirmedNon-Profit creators are more likely to adopt a high degree ofopenness only in diffusionWe interpret this founding as the result of the intent:

to maximize only the diffusion in order to increase thecontributions, because they are already able to attractcommunity contribution because of their legal status

Hypotheses

Hypothesis 3 is confirmedInformal creators:

production: tend to adopt a degree of openness less open thanFor-Profit, but more open than Non-Profitdiffusion: tend to adopt a low degree of openness

We interpret this founding as the result of the intent:

to share part of the production process to attract contributorskeep the diffusion process to commercialize
