Another one bites the dust...

I stopped buying music long ago, when the RIAA started suing [everyone]. I guess I'll stop buying movies now.

I stopped buying and going to the movies a few years ago and went back to books. At least there's some decent writers.

I still go to the movies, but if I want to watch a movie a second time then I just download it. I only buy movies which are worth watching several times over, and that does not happen very often at all, only have 20 purchased movies over the course of 5 years.

Well you are part of the problem then. If it was worth watch logically it is worth paying for. If the movie is so crappy it's not worth paying for then why bother downloading and watching it. That's like eating a plate of dog crap because it was free.

Sorry, but if movies and TV shows are that bad they aren't worth what the studios charge then yous peak wth your wallet and you don't buy. That doesn't mean you steal or "copy". The fact is if a millon people steal a movie then they aren't sending the message that the movie is crap and has no value they are giving the studios the exact OPPOSITE impression. And this in turn gives the studios the supposed ammo they need to go after downloaders. Anyone that says they download to "get back" at the studios are either delusional, lying or just plain stupid.
