WTF. MPAA Lobbying for Home Theater Regulations

http://www.bbspot.com/News/2006/11/home-theater-regulations.html

Here is the first paragraph. WTF!

"Los Angeles , CA - The MPAA is lobbying congress to push through a new bill that would make unauthorized home theaters illegal. The group feels that all theaters should be sanctioned, whether they be commercial settings or at home."

That's gotta be a joke. Otherwise, I am baffled.

The story is NOT real.
SATIRE - A JOKE - kinda like the MPAA

Ya know .. this story is fake (as has been mentioned) but its so ridiculous that I wouldnt be surprised if it HAD been true.

The MPAA defines a home theater as any home with a television larger than 29" with stereo sound and at least two comfortable chairs, couch, or futon. Anyone with a home theater would need to pay a $50 registration fee with the MPAA or face fines up to $500,000 per movie shown.

Just that part should tell you there would be a major revolution if they tried that shit
Hell they would get me for at least 3 theater's & the 4th room would be iffy

But alot of people would get off for only having 27" tv's


Oh wait, minus 1 room, i only have a 27" in my bedroom :P

If they raid 'yer house just move the projector closer to the wall... That'll confuse the crap out of 'em.

Ahhh. Satire. I am relieved. Sorry I missed that the first time.
