I always love this assinine discussions.
On the one hand, you have those so far to one side that think we need to have everything a one time use, locked up, and gideongallery chum in the water.
On the other end, we have those who have never produced any thing original, or with copyright, or intellectual rights to protect. Usually this crowd is the surf's up, or beer money barons of the biz, and their solution is this little gem...
"It doesn't matter what you do,
some will still end up stealing it"
They offer no real solutions, and point to old technologies, and the radar gun and radar detectors. The fact that some thieving, broke asshats will come up with a crack, and post it anyways, so apparently we should just start mailing them copies of the stuff because it is inevitable.
These people are little more than the scum of this industry. Assuming they are actually in it in the first place.
In the end, we have to try something to protect our rights. That is, for us actually in this business, and creating content that holds up the rest of the industry. It's a balancing act between pissing off the customers, and stopping the thieves. But once the content providers can no longer stay in business, there is nothing new, and this industry collapses.
