The more arts producers (music, movies, books, etc.) fight to keep their dying business model, the less I buy.

Over the last year I....
- spent $0.00 on music
- went to see one movie, courtesy of gift certificates
- bought zero DVD/Blu-ray movies

.......
heh. I haven't made any purchases in those categories for well over 5 years, probably longer.

nor will I until the content industry changes it's business model (away from "sue 'em all" and DRM) or dies and is replaced.

I don't listen to alot of modern music, but I was buying iTunes certificates for my daughter. That stopped cold when those two ridiculous file-sharing verdicts came this year. I just can't and won't pay the modern-day mob.
