The USA MPAA has just said they want to
"provide consumers with content when they want it, where they want it and how they want it".
What could be further from the truth. They want to just provide content through their restricted channels - cinemas they control, DVDs with DRM… or if they do provide content then it is sliced and diced by region, delivery media… and when someone like Netflix or iTunes sets up a service people like and use, they restrict the content to older, less popular movies.
Sorry but the MPAA (and all the others like them) are liars.
And just to cap it we are stupid and let our laws be used on their behalf to insist ISPs block web sites that index sources of content (think Pirate Bay) . We all know they don't own the internet, and they are doing this just because they don't own the internet, as a delivery channel.
