Just as the contenders want to win NOW. They pay a premium for that. Draft picks. So you want it this year, and he'll take it next. If the greed for this year did not exist, he would not get anyone willing to trade away everything for it.

Hate the game. Not the player.
So Barefootsies, I brought up that example to compare it to tube owners who are abusing the DMCA.

They are taking advantage of a loophole to build huge brands. Not to mention to get their foot in the door on licensing deals.

If they don't, they are leaving that opportunity on the table for someone else to grab.

Eventually, the DMCA will be amended somehow, but even when that happens and they "lose," they will STILL win, because they've already created huge brands.

Thoughts?
