#2: I must OWN in, and be able to RESELL it.
a) again, using 'War of the Worlds'. I thought it sucked. I would want to be able to sell it to someone else the day after. Why? I paid for it, I should be able to recover some of my costs. If I download it, I can burn it to DVD. Period.
The problem is that you could burn 20 copies and sell 20 copies.
They could either make the file burnable once only, or give the option to resell your right to the file for 80% of what you paid for it. Then the second guy can resell for 80% of what *he* paid, etc... until the price of the file drops to let's say 50% of the original sale price.
Then the price doesn't drop anymore, but 20% of the money goes back to the hollywood studio, and still 80% to the seller (this to avoid people buying the movie at $5 and reselling it at $5 infinitely) |
