Re: on average,

More like, a 1,000,000 point lead.

The MPAA was hesitant, at first, to go the RIAA "sue them QUICK!" route. It's like someone in the organization (with brains) was saying, "Wait a minute. We can't fight this, but, we could make money off of it!" Unfortunately, there are way too many hands in the pot. . . something that has plagued the movie industry for decades. I think it will take many, many years before they figure out a way to make this work for both the consumer and the money-grubbing execs.

Unfortunately Label CEOs and big good-ol'-boy networks like the RIAA and MPAA can't see beyond the end of their collective snout. When they saw Napster it didn't occur to any of them that this might be the beginning of something new and exciting for their customers and potentially profitable for them the good ol' boys. Just like the good ol' boys of the MPAA saw the VCR as a profit-eating monster instead of a golden goose...

They're late to a game they don't know how to play, and where the other team already has a ten point lead. And they still haven't figured it out.
