"This issue has nothing to do with your distaste for Hollywood or liberals, its about the rule of law... Remember the rule of law? Everyone here was all for it during the Clinton impeachment, but when its their ox being gored, they want to ignore it. "

Let's see, against Clinton's impeachment, pro-Hollywood...what are you doing here?

I never questioned Hollywood's copyrights. If you'd have actually read my post, you'd fail to find any such assertion. Hollywood are filled with idiots because they threw a business opportunity away. Instead of serving a growing audience by embracing what these chains were doing (they could have easily licensed them), they spat in the face of that audience. They put the "vision" of filmmakers ahead of their audience. Fine, they've chosen, now they'll lose money from these people as they turn to other entertainment.

I am here and have been here since 1998. This issue isn't about conservative versus liberal, its about copyright laws and what can and can't be done. Without regards to whether you agree with the politics or not.

Laws exist for a reason.

As far as it being a business opportunity, that is not germane to the argument, the copyright holders don't want to have their works altered or modified, its their call. All the other side arguments are moot.
