[...] MPAA Fires Three Anti Piracy Bosses The MPAA is currently involved in legal battles against several BitTorrent sites. Last year Hollywood’s lobby organization booked a victory in court when they managed to shut TorrentSpy down, but despite these efforts the studio bosses are still not satisfied. Three of the MPAA’s anti-piracy leaders have now been fired. [...]

well we can’t help it cuz we have internet, computer then you’re lucky to get copy but it don’t make sense if you got caught for sharing files well these ppl who download stuff are really lucky people who got internet, computer, and bandwidth. MPAA/RIAA shouldn’t cost old movies over $10 or $20 because they been making copy for many years so why not people? people have own copy machines. it really stupid if you are scooping people’s internet activities…because we all can’t help it. arrest everybody cuz nobody can stop it even everyone’s habit…prison can’t do nothing about it. if u give people life sentence for pirated something? well it still not gonna work cuz God’s watching you and you know nobody can buy all that expensive stuff all the time. we got bills, we got car bills, we got a family to feed, etc… it is NOT worth to pay too much money on movies n tv. if you cost new movies at least $5 and old movies should be $2-3 so we all can buy but not like $20 n up…if you making ridiculous then we will show u ridiculous pirated as long as u make good prices…

First, they want to sell us a new copy of *every* movie every time a new format comes out. If you’ve paid for the content of the movie once, why must you pay again for the same content you already paid for in another format? The reasoning and justification behind this is explained as the cost of the discs and packaging. But in reality, only a fucking sheep wouldn’t see that you’re paying multiple times for the same content. We all know what a DVD9 costs, and I can buy 10-20 of them for the cost of one single “industry” DVD. Surely something is amiss… The little plastic box costs that much? The glossy insert maybe? If I’m not paying for the right to enjoy said content unconditionally(you know, like for life) and am only paying for the physical product, then I am surely being defrauded by charlatans who enjoy the benefits of a monopoly by charging 1000%-2000% or more above cost for their product, not once but infinitely with every new format that comes along.

So, in it’s infinite power and glory, seeing a disparate situation which needed a resolution suited to the common man rather than harboring sympathy for such a fraudulent business model, the internet and indeed technology itself joins forces with the population of the world to bypass the need to pay inflated and downright extortionate prices for pennies worth of paper and plastic.

Now, we stand in the midst of revolution. A revolution that may very well put an end to this tyranny. Is it any huge surprise that the tyrants are valiantly defending themselves and their very right to exist, now that the people have risen up and are storming the castle armed with broadband connections and filesharing clients? Starve ‘em out. Burn ‘em out. Ready the stocks and oil the swords. The confrontation which will end their reign is drawing nigh. Which side of the walls will YOU be on when the tide of war comes to deliver it’s sweet justice?

Is it just me, or is this whole scenario starting to look painfully similar to the war on drugs..
