Sigh...

I'm sorry, but am I the only one that thinks the linked article uses the word "Victim" a tad loosely???

Victim?

I'd already watched the trailer at Apple.com before I even heard about this. I'm sure I'm not the only one... And, last I checked, Apple doesn't sell ads at their trailer site, they get zero income from their trailer site... Um, again.. Victim???

The RIAA and MPAA keep burning bridges and slamming doors shut, and honest consumers will end up screwed in the end due to their complete incompetence, lack of foresight, etc. Hyperbole like this adds nothing to the industries (or their mouthpieces) credibility...

Sigh...

Come on. It's a freakin trailer for god sake. ie: An advertisment. On no.. our ad leaked to the public! SH*T.. now everyone is going to see it. I know advertisers hate that!!!!

But while Apple makes no money, they may have had extra visitors to thier site, which could boost sales for them.
