Hey, you guys are preaching to the choir! IMO, the MPAA and Hollywood
are making up excuses so they can sell us the same content over and over
again. So while I agree with your points, I bet they'll still throw up
as many obstacles as possible. They may lose in the long run, but in
the short run they're still a pain in the ass.
