The music, tv and movie industry would respectfully disagree with your assessment. Hell one of my son's teachers showed the movie Monsters and Aliens in the classroom a couple of weeks ago. This movie just came out in theaters and not only that she told the kids WHERE to get it and other movies. When the people that are supposed to be teaching our kids are blatantly violating copyright well there you go.

2) Yes, Hulu does increase viewership of shows but the producers of the shows are CONTROLLING the way their product is released. That is hardly the case with illegal tube sites. I would have no problem if every illegal porn tube operated like Hulu. But you know the big tubes don't do that.

And there are illegal non porn tube sites that show episodes of Tv shows and movies. I've seen one of Family Guy. The are many of South Park. In fact is was because there were so many illegal South Park tube sites that they decided to make every episode ever made available at southparkstudios.com
