Instead of working to create a cost effective, quick method for users to buy (AND OWN, NOT LICENSE) digital movies, the MPAA is instead going to try and censor the internet. Brilliant move, idiots.

These are the people that sued a kid who broke DVD "drm" so he could play LEGAL movies he OWNED on a Linux machine since there was still licensing issues (i think that's the reason?) and no player. An be he didn't even live in the US.

Yeah. Fuck these execs. Steal everything they own. Burn the rest. Turn up the piracy and make local sharing networks.
