Its the restrictions pushed by the corporations in the US that is causing its economic demise. There no way to create new devices because of Patent and IP restrictions. So solution to me is weaken a corporations patent control as well as create more modern copyright laws that allow consumers some rights.

Honestly it’s because NBC doesn’t have any shows that anyone watches. Their figures are BS. Lets think about this. If 58 billion isn’t getting spent on music and tv shows… it is getting spent somewhere else. So the gvt is getting their tax money no matter what happens. There’s no way to do anything with money in the US without the gvt getting their fat grubby little nubs in on the action. This guy is a moron. I wonder if he knows that corn farmers are making MORE money now then ever since gas is around 60% Ethanol? Oh.. that’s alcohol made from corn mash and yeast for the uneducated. When will they learn it’s a consumer’s marketplace now. They can’t do whatever they want and get payed. We want what we want and we want it when we want it. That’s how people in the 21st century are raised. Get used to it.

Who wants to buy a movie? Or perhaps a Airbus wing (made in my garage but very good). Corn maize Wheeetos hey how much you wanna buy? How this man know the truth? He must be silenced. My wing business was going really well.

Interestingly if you want to make a wing the principles of aerodynamics means the top must be sloped so the moves faster thus ceating negative pressure on the top creating lift. Who is “NBC”?

@iamyour41
Exactly. You dont hear ABC CBS or FOX whining because people like and thus watch what they’re putting out. Other than “Heroes” waht does NBC have? Utter crap that’s what.

Like you said “We want what we want and we want it when we want it” ….exactamundo Batman.

I am so sick of these whiny “bitches” in the recording and motion picture industries. They didn’t want to embrace technology when it was right in front of their faces they just wanted to sit on their fat old complacent butts. Now all they can do is cry.

I’ve noticed most of the complaining isn’t coming from the artists it’s coming from the executives.

Most actors or music artists don’t get payed for how much the movie sells. Actors are paid the same no matter if the movie is a bomb or amazing. Music artists only make $1 or so per cd sold… and most people that dl their songs illegally won’t buy the album anyway. Besides the only current people out that deserve respect are NIN and Radiohead. NIN has the balls to rape the music industry like they do their fans… and radiohead is leading the way to the future by selling their current cd the way they are. I bet they have made more money doing that then they have by cd sells.

Um of course you’re losing. The people are actually in control of what you dirty little bastards want. Ever tried cooperating with the people instead of using NAZI techniques to get what you want? Sorry buddy but you’ve lost this battle against piracy. Just for that Ill get back on Limewire and download another high quality porno video. Ah a $5 loss.

Pirate away boys! Yaaaaaaaaaar! =^^=
