Hollywood vs. the Internet: Why entertainment companies want to hack your computer

“If you have a fast computer and a fast Internet connection, you make Hollywood nervous. Movie and TV studios are worried not because of what you’re doing now, but because of what you might do in the near future: grab digital content with your computer and rebroadcast it online. Which is why the studios, along with other content providers, have begun a campaign to stop you from ever being able to do such a thing.” Dah! But, an interesting article, nonetheless, at an interesting site (ReasonOnline.com) that I had never visited before.
