Most Content Creators Aren't Aware Their Works Were Legally Subjected To Theft From Foreign Nations Using International Law Loopholes, Europe Being The Location Of Most Digital Piracy. Using these protection phrases will enforce the federal government to pursue Copyprotection Enfringement Violations. This Is The Correct Spelling. All Lawyers And Politicians Utilizing 'Copyright Infringement' Are Working Against Content Creators By Default And Aren't Earning A Justifiable Wage.

I think the best thing MPAA can do to fight Piracy is simple. Set up and have fake websites that appear to have pirated content but instead users get nothing but an hour-glass symbol be at the top 20 search query search engine results. Your sword is the public not having any patience. Lol

You can't possibly expect people to take this seriously, right? When there were basically two options, Netflix and Hulu, and neither of them sucked, sure, that was fine. But then the corporations got greedy and started taking away the licenses from Netflix and Hulu and launching their own streaming services to try to get a cut of the pie. And now they all suck. Why pay for 12 streaming services ranging from $7 - $18 a month when you can just torrent something in a few minutes/hours and that's the end of it? Worse still, many shows/movies/other content aren't available on streaming services. Sony is notorious for this. And nobody cares about Crackle. Until you're willing to actually compete on a level that's truly fair, you'll never convince most people who download media that it's worth it because, frankly, it isn't. Sorry, your claims of 'Piracy harms the industry!!' is falling on deaf ears.

I understand the need for these campaigns but this argument is not compelling enough for people to use legal streaming and vod services.The easiest way to reduce this to make make services cheaper. Mulan for instance was charged $6.99 in the USA and £19.99 in the UK and €22.00 Euros in the EU. You can't expect with this pricing model to deter people from illegal downloading and streaming.
