So when i finish my next film and sell it on Amazon or Netflixs, and sell my first copy and that person uploads it on Pirate Bay or Demonoid and after few days ends up on all the flash movie sites, and has been downloaded 5 million times yet in the next six months my film only sells 3 DVD at $12, how does this help the independent filmmaker, nobody came knocking on my door from Hollywood after watching my movie, i lost all the money i put into the project, i have no home and no job and now live on welfare handouts, yet the people sharing my movie on the internet are making money from google ads, is this your RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH.
