This speaks more to the passion of the creators to continue to create new films in adverse economic conditions than any positive effects of "free distribution" models.

Don't let these piracy supporters deflect the issues at hand. Stealing content as a business model is damaging the adult entertainment industry and morally wrong. They need to be stopped. The Protect-IP Act and SOPA are big steps in restoring balance and fairness to the online distribution model for content producers.

It is time for the thieving to end.

Just my opinion.
just make sure to protect the right of copyright holders to steal from competitors by giving them a free pass when they misrepresent fair use as infringing actions

Right.
