“Illegal movie trafficking represents the greatest threat to the economic basis of movie-making in its 110-year history”

They once said the same thing about TV.

They once said the same thing about VCRs.

Funny how these same worn-out lies get repeated over and over.

How is this going to be any different than what the RIAA has done in the past? Both are basing it on the fallacy that, IP = a distinct individual when clearly that is not the case. Their ‘is this you?’ ad that is set to be used in a week or so shows this fallacy: funkbass@fileshare 64.165.10.xxx 2:27AM 9/23/04. Sound familiar?

I just see more goon-like tactics headed in our direction and more RIAA style lawsuits.

I used to enjoy going out to watch a film on the big screen. Guess I’ll just have to boycott the music industry, too.
