    They should be fined and sanctioned for hacking computers by way of infecting end users with a virus/trojan. I don't agree with downloading, but I sure as hell don't agree with MPAA either.

    I agree with LS's comment... But nothing wrong with a bogus torrent site - you go looking for it (if you download movies via torrent), not the other way around. However, scanning your computer is wrong...

    My same view about WGA - this really is a trojan...

    Why don't they make better movies?

    Don't know, but I don't understand the connection with downloads. Also don't see the attraction for downloads either. If the goal is to be as cheap as possible, Hell wait till you can rent it for a dollar for 5 nights. The next time you want to watch it you can probably rent it for 50 cents. If it's any good at all, it will be available for rent 2 years latter.

    If the goal is to watch every movie still playing at the theater, shame on you....Pitty on you too.! I can't find 6 new movies a year that even enterest me.

    As always, you can count on the MPAA behaving like goons.

    Because movie studios are spending billions of $$$ on lame copy protection schemes that dont work rather than putting the money to better use by making better movies.

    Its not that either. They are spending the money on movies. Its just that they're all garbage. Movie budgets have gone mad. Then, when the movie doesn't recoup their expenditures, its because of illegal downloading not because they made the most expensive piece of garbage ever.
