'Inferior' up until now didn't describe the content, but the rest of the experience. This would change the content itself, which I would expect most authors to be very protective of.

- mikeash 13y agoNot entirely true. It's been done in movies for a few years now, to track down leaks from theaters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coded_Anti-Piracy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coded_Anti-Piracy Of course, movies and books are probably opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to artistic integrity.
- tekromancr 13y agoThey claimed that they were imperceptible, bullshit. I see about 3 or 4 every time I see a movie in theaters. I see it, I notice it, and the fact that they were willing to disrupt their own content bugs me enough that I am unable to enjoy the rest. As far as artistic integrity goes, it makes sense that the immense cost of a film being covered by the studio gives them quite a bit of say in the filmmaking process, for good or ill.
