Because of all the things the electorate cares about, DMCA reform is near the bottom of the list. People are largely happy with the status quo where they can pay a few bucks a month and stream music and TV to their heart’s content. And if a threat to this regime were to seriously arise, the entertainment and software industries — which are both still some of the highest-growth industries in the country - would take notice and scream bloody murder. These industries employ millions of Americans (including many people who frequent HN) and generate billions in revenue, and they aren’t going down without a fight.
