So, essentially: then what is the difference between someone who writes a song and some invents a process to make a drug (or whatever aspect of IP you agree with)?

Music is instantly rewarding for the person playing it. This is not true with many other instances of IP.

So if the inventor had fun inventing, or if the musician didnt really enjoy writing music they would deserve IP protection?
