The MPAA and RIAA are on a rampage, and they need to be stopped. Case in point, the new P.I.R.A.T.E. Act (which I think still has yet to pass one of the levels of Congress), in which the Department of Justice will handle lawsuits for the poor industry. Meaning, the executives of the studios get to use taxpayer money, instead of their own, to file their petty lawsuits. The whole idea of intellectual property is being corrupted by these deep-pocket interests and their lobby. Someone please shut them down soon! I agree completely.

WTF do they think they are doing? Since when is it illegal for a legal company to sell a piece of high-tech, especially when it's to other comapanies? Damn, this is INNOVATION. How the hell can the MPAA justify shutting down corporate dealings to create/sell technological advances in the US marketplace? This pretty much goes against the entire laissez faire system of economics, no? Adam Smith would be rolling in his grave. Who the hell died and gave the MPAA paramilitary powers?
