Something at some point has to give as well. I am talking about America. Companies are still making millions of dollars off of movies, games, music, books, etc. But we all know that they could be making more! Meanwhile, people cannot find jobs, the economy is down, etc. This is not just because of piracy, but I think it is one of the things that has helped our ecomony go down the drain. You can add too many laws, regulations, taxes, government to that as well. Studio execs may have used to make billions, but at least people had jobs. I do not know what I think about this, but I do know I hate where we are right now. This might not even help out that much at all if piracy was stopped, but any steps in what seems like a good direction is preferable to where we are at now. |
companies only make money nowadays with big blockbusters but i really wish to see everything except blockbusters lol. ok i like games like halo or so...
many companies don't even make money just look at ea over the last years they burn money even with firing employees and selling fifas like shit.
i don't like censorship as well like if they try to say me i can't play or see this or that because it's not good for my mind or shit like that, but it's not censorship for me if they stop me to download their developements for free if they don't wish to let me get it for free or if i can't see britney spears anymore on youtube if she or her companies doesn't want that. it's their good right to let only people see her dancing with a cow on a milk farm if we pay for that or if we have to see advertisment then. it's no censoreship for me if i can't take a car i like in my neighbourhood do drive along the coast.
yeah i know that's something different because a digital download isn't a physical one but it's still a loss for them if i don't buy it because of this oportunity. music branche shrank 50% over the last years even with the whole world growing and countries like eastern european growing as hell economically.
