Business is about cost vs revenue. If a video costs $1000.00 to make and generates $10,000 in revenue, then its a winner, regardless of semantics, theories and philosophies.

The fact that Shap isn't complaining should tell people something.
oy vey...

read up on the cycles of distribution, learn something about windows.

a person releasing a direct to video or internet production does not have the windows of a large studio nor the deep pockets, thus the porn video producer is far more vulnerable to theft and loss of revenue thru pirating, thus shap's analogy was apples and oranges.

the end.
