we would have had that innovation years ago.
Theaters should have 3-d without the stupid glasses,
12.1 surround sound
instead a theater is just a bigger version of what you can see in your own home.
innovation was crushed because of draconion copyright monopoly.

it has nothing to do with profits or shitty quality. are you saying you have a right to come to theater record the whole movie, put it on some streaming site plastered with ads stream to millions of others just because you paid ticket price? is this fair use? same applies to dvd rips and anything else. streaming site not responsible for whats on their site, its clever.

think about it this way if the arguement "we licience the right to view that content at a specific time on a specific day only" was ruled to be invalid by the fair use right of timeshifting why the fuck would you believe the "we licience the right to view in a specific location only" should be.
if access shifting had happened when it was first proposed, then movie theaters would have had to add value to the showing (3-d, 12.1 surround sounds, smell-o-vision) that would have made going to a movie an experience you could not get with a shitty cam.
billions of dollars of jobs would have been created in the production of real physical goods (cameras that record in 42 bit color etc)

for the same reason congress had hearing to discuss a law that would have outlawed vcr after they were legalized by the courts. political donations.
The problem is when a fair use right is established in the courts it OVERRIDES the previous laws. And the voters will sack any politician who trys to reverse the trend.
