Block me from burning DVD's, fine, I'll just hack my drive to get around your security. Try to send me to jail for doing it. Fine, I'll just conseal my activities. Try to peak in on what I'm doing. I'll just hide my machine. Block me from getting any hardware that allows me to do ANYTHING you don't like. Fine, I'll go out of the country and buy my hardware there.
They just don't get it. All they're doing is turning their own customers against them. In time the people are going to get so sick of it that the battle will totally turn against the RIAA and MPAA, people will demand media freedom, and laws will be turned against them. And for what? They're already making outrageous fortunes screwing everyone from the top of the ladder down to joe nobody, yet they want more??? o_0
I'm sorry if I sound a bit crass, but this is a sore subject with me. I'm going to stop now before I get really obnoxious about this corporate powered greed induced money gorging fest. Gauds I hate greed.

I totally agree. The last time they "lost" the battle against VCRs they made another fortune with video rentals and pornography.
All it would take is a convienent pay site for downloading movies and they would make another fortune like iTunes is doing with music. But instead they want to play hardball. They're stupid and/or stubborn.
