Gideon, please point where lies new revenue stream in example such as this:
What about little guys? small production shops, who are pushing only 1-2mil in revenues? let say there is a stock photo company, let say they release 10-20 CD/DVDs a year, and have generous 50% gross profit. One day someone decides to utilize redundant backup of modern public torrent trackers to store these DVDs. what happens next? almost instantly their content freely available on all pirate resources with 100 thousands of downloads globally. How this small shop can monitor all such resources and go after all leeches without fair use right? - Gideon suggests for this company to use most of their profits to legally pursue criminal offenders.
I see only additional expenses occurring to the fact of piracy. how can they monetize their freely distributed content to increase their profits? please do enlighten us
lets take another example, small startup gaming company releases for sale blockbuster game, 1million bought copies, in few month 10 million playing cracked version - where are these new revenue streams you are talking about?
