who's fault is that 6 spectrum color was known to be superior to 3 spectrum color since color film broadcast were invented
it was a cheap solution to a cost problem, we have had the technology to shoot movies in 6 spectrum color for 10 years now.
4 spectrum color appeared in tv BEFORE it appeared in theatres (it still doesn't exist BTW)
autoscopic 3d (3d without glasses) is coming to tv next year. (again before theatres)
theatres used to innovate (remember surround sound) they don't anymore

It is quite possible that you are right that it not possible to stop the copying and distributing of digital material, after all thats is what computers and the Internet do.
If SOPA and laws to control copywrite fail then the only possibilities are
Destruction of the creative industries as DVD, newspapers , CDs sales continue to fall.
This case the creative industries are in the situation of selling bottled water when it is free from the tap. Possible but extremely difficult and getting harder when people wages are falling all over the world.
Consumption free at the point of use, but paid for by subscription to access the Internet. The Internet will have to pay for the creation of the content it distributes, Like the BBC or the UK National Heath service, free when you use it, but you pay through taxes or fees to receive the Internet.
What happens depends on which group of corporations have the most lobbyists.

or maybe content producers will get off their fucking asses, and get back to innovating
introducing new technology that only cost effective at the theatre level so that the difference between the original and the copy will be great enough that people will WANT to see the movie in the theatres.
