content is content.. the MAFIAA create awesomeness remakes like Avatar (Dances with Wolves w/ aliens), or remix comic books into movies (Marvel, ad nauseum), but the end result is entertainment.. it's not like food, or water, it's entertainment. How is it that they think their value is upwards in the vicinity of diamonds, a rare commodity?
it's entertainment!
More content is being produced today, and I mean daily, than has been produced in the past 10 years. youtube.com accepts about 40hrs of content per minute!?!?
I read a great article on torrentfreak where they posted the top 10 most pirated movies, alongside the 'alleged' gross for said movie, and it made perfect sense. If you create a great product, ppl will pay for it, AND pirate it, yet you (being the MAFIAA) are still raking in the billions, irrelevant of the file sharing count. Honestly, it was almost equal, the download count, add a zero, and that was the gross profit, 12 million downloads, 1.2 billion in gross.
This can only lead to the Freudian belief emitted from their twisted reality, 'ppl are watching it and not paying us'. Am I the only one that sees this as greed personified? The story-lines are so predictable, I could write the scripts!
I changed my mainstream media content consumption 12 years ago, and never looked back.. Masnick comments on 'cord-cutters', honestly, I don't get it. I have a 60" LED that I use for a monitor for a computer to view my content'?
Am I alone? In the digital age, infinite possibilities result in infinite results.
Copyright is about as effective as jay-walking offenses, so I educate as many ppl as I meet that there are alternatives.
It's not about 'not paying' it's about circumventing the greed. Price movies to 1USD, and songs to 10¢, and ppl will pay, the days of your exorbitant profit margins are OVER.
at what point are you going to realize that piracy is copyrights' fault, and nobody else?
I already have enough music to create a 24/7/365 streaming playlist that doesn't start over for 5 years.
I already have enough movies to watch 2 a night and not start over for 5 years.
I already have enough tv shows (with no commercials mind you) like Space 1999 (try and buy that one!), M*A*S*H*, all the way up to Enterprise, Stargate Universe and True Blood to watch 5 episodes a night and not start over for 6 years.
when you download a digital copy, nobody references the license, the distribution right, the public performance right, geez, did I miss a right? My rights override your privilege every single day of the week, day, and hour.
Honestly, I didn't even check who created the song, who cares what alphabet soup thinks I owe them money, because, well, I don't owe them any.
you know they are getting desperate when they go after pre-schools for showing a Disney movie to children, that they actually paid for. That's the limit, I paid for it, I shall perform as I please, public or otherwise.
but, but, think of the children,.. gag..
You call me a freetard, well, it's because of the multitude of copyfraud going on, I sleep much better knowing that I didn't actually pay for some inane license by some inane licensing copytard extorting copyfraud from the children.
I got to educate another person today, she was actually paying for movie rental, when she mentioned she has a friend that watches new releases, and could not understand how that was possible. Being a novice user, I gave her homework over a 3 day period, and now enjoys any movie she wants, when she wants, where she wants.
kinda like ppv on demand, without the paying part.
ignorant, by definition is a lack of knowledge. And I was pretty knowledgeable when i chose this particular icon. Therefore I consider your comment ironic, if not funny, so thanks.
you hit the nose on the head. When faced with the reality of it all, economic chaos from reckless rich bankers; and with the SEC in their pocket, there is no repercussions. Employment stagnation, genetically modified foods, wholesale commodity brokering of gasoline to inflate the price, student loans granted to anyone with a pulse, you realize that the entire planet and it's resources are only here for the whims of the rich. If you balled up all the rights and privileges you have lost over the last 10 years, go back 10 years, and attempt to take them away all at once, there would be rioting in the streets, and I do mean real blood, not Hollywood ketchup. Chance and history has emboldened the 'haves' to migrate their covert attempts to fleece the 'have-nots' to overt fleecing.
Hollywood is designed to continue to export hope to the sheeple that there actually is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow if you work hard enough, aka The American Dream, when in fact, there is no such thing. With their movies about car chases, shoot em ups, super heroes, love stories, and happy endings, they portray a fantasy world in one and a half bits to soothe the unconscious rage teeming in every single American. This is why Americans are so lazy, deep down, they realize, there is no hope of rising to millionaire, sans the 90 minute respite at your local movie theatre for $40USD.
Controlling the mass media is of utmost priority to ensure that nobody, and I mean nobody sees the man behind the curtain and realized, it's all just bullshit.
It's not that they can't understand why ppl like myself infringe on copyright, it's that they have the mentality of how DARE I. It's no wonder they call this 'The Entitlement Generation'.
This is the prime reason I infringe on copyright, and have for 10 years, and will until my dying days.

That's;

For willful infringement, I can see where the 58 billion number comes from, I owe $27,703,500,00
I read your post and had to laugh!
