In the interview, I cited Gabe and Valve's success in Russia by realizing "piracy was a service problem." http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/114391-Valves-Gabe-Newell-Says-Piracy-Is-a-Service-Problem http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/114391-Valves-Gabe... That's probably where that language originated, but I agree that as more data comes out, we'll see piracy as less and less of a problem. The more innovators showing how to embrace change (and win!), the better. That's a big part of why I invested in startups like VHX.tv -- so I can have more examples showing why we don't need laws, esp bad ones.
