You have argued that there should be access shifting. How far should that go. What could be the legit excuses. Maybe if you were handicapped and physically were unable to make it to the theater then you are allowed to download it. What if the nearest theater was 30 miles away? Is that far enough to allow for access shifting to take place? What if you have a kid and can't find a babysitter?
I'm just looking for an idea here. If it were up to you what fair use rights would you make content producers grant? You lay down the rules and they have to follow them. What rules would you put in place?

I wonder if Gideon knows it's CRIMINAL to 'record' the movie in theaters. It's a single medium that is DRM protected.
