Re: Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA)
Good for the Pirate Bay. It's funny to think how much of a hypocrite everyone in this whole ordeal is. Murdoch speaks out against piracy yet was more then happy to phone hack the British Royal Family among countless others. Hollywood claims to be loosing money yet can still afford to pay actors like Johnny Depp $40 million to star in a movie.
It seems that no matter what outdated establishments will cry kicking and screaming anytime someone threatens them. Hollywood cried out against people bringing camcorders to movies yet some odd years later they publish articles teaching educators how to set up a camcorder in front of a flat screen to record shows for educational purposes.
The bottom line is this. People are still willing to pay. Itunes, Netflix, Hulu, CrunchyRoll are all examples. If you really are loosing money, which is doubtful, it's because you refuse to give up on your outdated business models in hopes of controlling that which you no longer have control over.
