    Maybe they'll hire the former Information Minister to be the spokesman... "No, no... There is no filesharing anywhere..." :-)

    imposed similiar types of oppressive IP law in France and West Germany which basically shut down their film makers..

    I don't know about you, but but if Jerry Lewis and Gérard Depardieu are the French taste in cinema, I don't think we missed out on too much.

    Now, granted, they DID give us Jean-Jacques Annaud (The Bear, Seven Years in Tibet, Name of the Rose), but he seems to be the exception.

    Why is abortion still an issue today? We agree with killing 3000 innocent people to bring "freedom" to several million and MONEY to several hundred million. Why would we care if they kill a few more innocent people to improve the quality of life for the living? Perhaps they can't support another baby. What if having that baby means another person dies and the baby lives a horrible life of starvation.

    And what do we care? Us Americans, sitting in front of our TV sets eatting our fast food, worrying about some people we will never see on TV. Except only for those brief message hoping to bring christianity to the children and inform us that they exist. Society is truely sick. Psychotherapy recommended.
