What about the film ~directors~?

With BitTorrent, don't steal, just download share-friendly films and music -- it's obvious that's the wave of the future, anyhow -- and circumvent all this Hollywood mafia booliwugging.; Like this Reply to this comment

Same old story...
by SeizeCTRL November 23, 2005 9:14 AM PST: You would think the movie industry would have learned something from the music industry's battle with MP3s and how well iTunes is doing. They should have been the first to jump on digital distrobution. I do tend to side more with the movie people than the music people. Something wrong about being able to buy a DVD for $14 but going to the mall and CDs are like $18. CDs should all be under $10. Wasn't that what the RIAA promised many years ago?; Like this Reply to this comment
