Talk about entitlement.
There is a whole movement among pirates where they feel that the movie industry should have to release their movies in all markets and all formats at the same time. So the day a movie is out you can see it in the theater or buy/rent the DVD/Blu-Ray, or watch it on PPV or watch it on premium cable, free cable or even free TV. Their argument is that since it will then be available in all formats in all markets at once the movie will make more money and there will be no piracy because the customers will have it available to them in all formats and price points so there will be no need for piracy.

It's pretty laughable.
