And if it takes you 100M to design the soy-bean-printing-machine, you will get the necessary investment exactly how? I don't like MPAA either, I think they go

I don't like MPAA either, I think they go over the top. But you are no better than MPAA by failing to take a more nuanced point of view. If there is no copyright whatsoever, I can guarantee you that no one will make 100M hollywood movies. And yes, they do take 100M to make - they hire armies of artists and programmers for that.
- efdee 12y agoYou don't need 100M to make a good movie. You need 100M to make a movie that is trying to hide its own inadequacies by spending an insane amount of money on special effects and well-known actors. That is not to say that there aren't movies that are worth spending 100M to make - but the market-driven talentless big budget movies that are coming out of Hollywood? We could well do without them. That being said, most movies that have a 100M budget earn back their money in theatres, so I'm not convinced that with a downsized copyright system (no copyright whatsoever sounds silly, considering the term covers quite a few different bases, many of which are not impeded on by person-to-person sharing) they would run into big problems.
- jjaredsimpson 12y agoIt's not sharing, it's theft, whats the argument for "downsizing copyright"
- efdee 12y agoNice try.
