copyright infringement = democracy?

This issue has only two real sides: original content producers vs. freeloaders
(in this business, we could use "paysite owners and affiliates vs. deadbeat surfers")

Folks that generate and deliver media of value deserve to be paid

Folks that only know how to steal the work of others, oppose this.
What a load of shit. I am against piracy AND this bill.

Also, one might take notes from pirates who have improved the delivery method and user experience. People are paying for these file lockers even after choosing not to pay for your websites. If you offered a delivery method and price they found equally agreeable maybe they'd give that money to you.
