And who said they lost money? The MPAA? Please....the MPAA has been proven full of shit in Court, they can't provide how or where they got the numbers of "loss" from. That's because it's made up.

Both the music and movie Industries have had record earnings, ticket sales, broke records all over the place last year - in America and around the World. Actually if anything, music has exploded... They didn't lose shit.


I don't get your example.... whatever you think it is, it clearly it isn't.

Fair use is very simple to understand, if Copyright was absolute, we would never progress forward in anything, period.
Of course you don't get my example. Because if you did there would be no debate
about copyright law. The issue with copyright is that people can't grasp the
concept of theft unless they are stealing a tangible product.

Fair use is just fine.

Torrents, illegal tubes, content theft is only fair use in the mind of a fucking thief.
