I can't believe these idiots can study Piracy for a year and aren't sure if it hurts or not...
for those of you who were paying attention

I told you that when the MPAA was attempting to criminalize the vcr (trying to get them blocked at the border even though the courts made them legal) the government study proved that the economic loss to the nation would be greater than letting it keep going.

it pretty much common sense the number of people that were employed delivering, selling ,fixing vcr in the US would exceed the number of people employeed making tv shows at the time.

tv shows need to adapt, and when they got their head out of their asses and embraced the technology it turned into the biggest money maker for the industry.

this is just a repeat of that arguement, it comming just a little early, because unlike the porn companies of old you guys are equally clueless to see how to properly embrace the distribution channel AS a distribution channel.
