With regards, to fanfic I get the impression they're talking about commercialized fanfic(which is technically illegal-at least in the US), I doubt the estate would sue say...fanfiction.net over LOTR fanfiction.

Regarding the rest of it, eh well IP protection and all. I'm somewhat mixed on the subject.
