PS Might as well throw in one of my mini-rants about Hollywood since it's applicable to the Blockbuster/Enron story.

A solution to the theft problem of both DVD and Streaming movies? Easy. Start paying Hollywood actors a LOT less. Make movies cost about 2 bucks. Whether you see it on the big screen, see it on DVD, or stream it. If it's 2 bucks, no one will bother stealing it. Why does Mel Gibson get $15 million for 6 months worth of work anyway? Lord help him if he ends up making 1/2 million every six months, right?<vbg> Or Lord help the studios if the ticket prices go from $8 down to a reasonable $2.

Oh, I'm going to love the way the Internet is going to turn Hollywood(MPAA) and record industry(RIAA) upside down on their heads where they belong. End of mini-rant. -MikeM(From Florida)
