it obvious you don't understand me at all, i am nash capitalist. I object to people claiming monopoly rights for fair use. I want as much competition as possible in the fair use distribution of content. I want as many technologies as possible to compete with each other in the fair use rights of backup/recovery/timeshifting.
I want the cheapest, most effective, least problematic technology to win. That not anarchy that a free market.
Your the one who claims that 99% of people using torrents are using them to steal content they never purchased in the first place, when even the RIA own study said more than 50% of all torrent traffic is tv shows (like heroes, lost and other shows airing on broadcast tv).
Steve is the one who argued that the DMCA would be re-written to eliminate the safe harbor "loophole" dispite the fact there are 3 bills currently being proposed that would scale back the power of copyright holders because the DMCA went to far.
The courts keep pushing the line back (this example, lenz vs universal, 20th century vs cablevision) and supporting fair use.
Yet steve "captain caveman" jones keeps complaining about tube sites, and torrent sites instead of adapting.
