Mark Cuban on the future of HD Media

kcmarshall writes "Mark Cuban's most recent blog post talks about what media will carry HD movies and content. The post makes it obvious that he's not a typical exec with a secretary who checks his email for him. He writes about ripping DVDs "that [he] had PURCHASED" to keychain drives and copying HD content to an external FireWire drive. He believes that the solution to movie piracy is bigger file formats."

    How about teaching the kids that we live in a fucked up society where 90% of the wealth just sits there in a fucking pile collecting money dust while all over the nation people are starving / freezing / living on the street / dying of treatable diseases. Have you ever seen how many empty houses and apartments there are in the inner city ? And people are homeless .. why ? How about teaching them that multinational corporations will not only break the law to make money, but actually are responsible for many atrocities (bhpoal anyone?) involving exploitation / maiming and death of workers and surrounding innocents. How about teaching them that daddy will never be paid the full value of his labor and therefore can't afford a house / car / nice things that the kiddies want. WHAT THE FUCK. GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE. YOUR $50.00 THAT YOU SPENT ON THE MOVIES IS GOING STRAIGHT UP A HOLLYWOOD EXEC'S NOSE in the form of a fat fucking line of coke. How about teaching them that we have been lulled into complacency with an average life, TV addictions, and readily available 'anti-depressant drugs' and that the people will never gain a fucking thing until we revolt against these rich fuckers. So, my mentality (if you can get your head around it) is to fuck the system every chance I get, there is no american dream, you need to get over each and every way you can. Fuck the law, BURN HOLLYWOOD BURN.
