The way you wrote it made it sound like the industry isn't really concerned about camming due to it not being a threat. My point was that the industry is highly concerned about it and goes to great lengths to fight it.
I can certainly agree with your A & B.
- tptacek 15y agoWhat I think is that if the whole of the file sharing problem was cam torrents, we wouldn't be seeing routine interventions like SOPA and mass lawsuits, because cam torrents aren't threatening. The film industry would certainly continue to do stupid things to react to stuff they don't understand, but it would happen at a slower pace and be easier to counter. The problem, which this article conveniently ignores, is that the film industry is right about most file sharing: DVD rip torrents are a real threat.
- Natsu 15y agoWhat should happen is that they adopt the Crunchyroll model and help their customers give them money. Sadly, it appears that they will be dragged into the future kicking & screaming. Which sucks, because a lot of good artists are being held back by this.
- lawnchair_larry 15y agoThe article ignores it because that is irrelevant to the discussion. Torrenting and DVDs and SOPA and all that are also irrelevant. You are pulling in random other issues related to copyright vs hollywood that the article is not about. Hollywood says cams in movie theaters are a big problem. Article refutes this. The article isn't about anything else.
