I’m not sure how much you’ve looked into this, so I can’t be sure how much of this would be repeat for you. I’m actually kind of at a loss for how you can come to anti-IP views without being versed in the responses to these common questions. But try these on for size:

Against Intellectual Monopoly

Intellectual Property at Mises.org

Obviously Kinsella is the foremost authority on this, and his blog archives as Mises.org as well as C4SIF.org almost entirely focus on the subject of IP. You can find them in the links section at his Mises Wiki page, but here are a few highlights:

Writers Can Prosper Without Intellectual Property (by Gennady Stolyarov II, actually)

Examples of Ways Content Creators Can Profit Without Intellectual Property

Funding for Creation and Innovation in an IP-Free World
