Saban Brands isn't going to care about Toei Sentai/Kamen Rider subs as long as:
1) It doesn't appear to cost them Power Rangers viewers/ratings/money 2) It isn't posted on YouTube 3) Toei is okay with it If at any time one of those three become disputable, Saban Brands will come down hard and shut down all the sites. This whole thing is about money, or "estimated loss of money" ... Back in the day, it was illegal to download and turn around and sell the stuff for a profit. Now they want it to be illegal to download it period, because they think if you're downloading it, you're not paying to see it. The MPIA and RIAA view every download as a "loss of sale" ... so if you estimate 50,000 people downloaded "GI Joe: Rise of Cobra" instead of paying $15 to see it in the movies... 50,000 x 15 = $750,000 loss. Now figure 100,000 people downloaded the Blu-ray DVD: 100,000 x $20 = $2,000,000 So combine that and MPIA is thinking that they lost nearly $3 million dollars from downloads. But their math is faulty - you can't assume that every download is a loss of sale. If I go see something in the theater and I choose to download it, it's because I want to see it again (I already paid to see it once). I'll probably buy the DVD too because I enjoyed it that much. But they're driven by money, and they're threatening to stop donating to various politician campaign funds if they do not support the SOPA and PIPA bills. Sad, sad times. |

That stuff about Dodd saying they would not donate to politicians that don't vote in favor of the MPAA.... That is a crime isn't it?

I'm pretty sure someone could sue him for it.
And they should. It would be so awesome if literally every other MPAA employee just decided to turn against him and do just that.

I feel like I should bump this thread just to let all the European users know to look up ACTA. There isn't much we in the US can do about it right now, but you guys can do quite a bit from what I can tell.
