    didn't you realise yet that these us-americans are using some weird units of measurement?

  4. Re:Why would anyone produce shows then? on RMS Calls to Liberate Cyberspace · · Score: 1
    If you cannot profit from your work because people upload your tv shows and music to usenet, then it will not make economic sense to make tv shows any more. So the money making scheme is. Produce shows. Encrypt with DRM. Profit.
    as for tv shows, the only problem for the companies is that the ads are being removed before the shows are uploaded to usenet or distributed by bittorrent. the most effective solution to this would be to offer hi-quality downloads with ads included. or am i missing something here?

    (for the ferengis out there: produce shows -> add ads -> let as much ppl as possible watch these shows (by using many distribution / broadcast methods) -> even MORE PROFIT!!!$$$
