Over at our sibling games site Kotaku, Mark has written an excellent analysis of why SOPA (and similar legislation) is pointless and how movie companies should concentrate on making it easier to buy their products online. Definitely worth a read. [Kotaku]
Bloody well said. Now send it to the people who need to see it. I agree wholeheartedly, although I have a few issues with steam, but hopefully they will get some competition soon. See that too is part of the problem, lack of competition. Good job!! :)
The movie studios aren't really worried about piracy (at least not as much as they're making it out to be), they're more worried about losing control, otherwise this would be an easy solution for them.
