and compete with piracy by offering huge catalogs of content cheaply, quickly, and with limited hassle.
Yeah. Right. People throw out this idea all the time. And it is so bogus it should be laughed off the table. Cheap is still more expensive than free. And the people who steal music and movies can't be encouraged to pay for it no matter how cheap it is. So all the whining about the RIAA & MPAA adopting new business plans is just so much hot air. And the HUGE mistake the RIAA and MPAA do is making the assumption that EVERY downloader is someone that won't be buying. Fact is, MANY downloaders DO BUY and many downloaders WOULDN'T BUY ANYWAY. Of course, if they quoted 'real' numbers, the fact that piracy isn't NEARLY as much of a problem as they want you to believe would become obvious-and they would be shown up for the liars they are! |
