Well i am one voice that i am sure is mirrored by many that feel the very same way. I am sick of standing by and watching companies, Govt and all others taking shots at our business. The .XXX was the closest thing to almost really change our business forever. It was a good thing it got voted down. But the real problem as i see it is the "size" of our business and way we are all "fragmented" and "split apart" easy pickens and a great target to those who think they can just walk in and take charge.
I say that this industry as a whole needs to come up with " a plan" a way to form itself as "one" to unite and make it clear to the those from the Govt to all other outside and inside influence, to stay away. I have been told that "it could never be done" or "this webmasters and business as a whole would never do it" ...but what i say is this: Its never been done, unless we lay it out so all can see it, make it fair, and make it right, then at that time once its proposed to the community, at that time if it did not work, then it would be something to look back on at least and say " we did try it and did not work"
But i think if done right with the right people involved, our online business could be represented in the largest way possible and insure our business to grow and not get messed with at every turn. I see the Video business as having there Lobbiest that deals wtih there issues on a "high level" never to have to go thru every single strike or attempt to high jack thre business.
I put to the board this simple question:
1. what methods do you see that would make the entire community come together as one, the most trusted, not self interest way of looking out for the business, but the fair and right way that business should be conducted and having one voice as an industry as a whole?
