Does anyone remember when a group tried to buy legal copies of movies and resell them at cost, including a cleaned up version without all the sex, violence, and foul language? The movie industry sued them and shut them down.
Parents were willing to pay double to eliminate the sex, violence, and foul language. Hollywood refused to allow it even when it cost them lots of money.
Hollywood does not put that garbage in front of our children because of a profit motive.
