How do you make money when most people are stealing the movies at illegal web sites?
How can you say most people? That is a very broad generalization, is it not?
Based on hundreds of news articles over the last 2 years publishing the results of surveys, polls, etc.

most of which were either written by "stenographers" simply laying out the industry line, are based on non-reviewed data paid for by the industry, or are simply numbers made up by some group or organization.

the only rigorous, academic studies I am aware of indicate that "pirating" has little or no impact on media sales; one study targeted at P2P music sharing indicates there could actually be a positive impact on music sales.

$20 is just too much. Unless a movie is brand spanking new and even then you can still find it cheaper else where. I personnally just wait a few months after DVD realease and pick a used copy from blockbuster for 4 for 20....

If it's in the news, it must be right! Believe everything you read? Surveys are opinions, not reality. Polls are also opinions. The data depends on who you ask. Not exactly accurate.
