I GOT GONE WHEN I GOT WISE: oldstarnewshine: how to cut down on an enormous chunk of illegal...

how to cut down on an enormous chunk of illegal downloading, and this is so absurdly simple that it boggles the mind:

make your show / movie / whatever accessible online.

put ads on it so you can make money off of it, or sell a subscription to a competitive streaming…

“ I’m not saying that we are all criminals for participating in file sharing. It is my hope that content distributors will start to realize why people pirate. That it isn’t just because it is free. It’s also goddamned convenient. They need to accept that times have changed. We don’t want to buy their DVDs. We don’t want overpriced cable bundles with 40 channels we will never watch. Photoshop should not cost 700 goddamn dollars. We want safe, reliable content available for download instantly and priced within reason. By not providing this, distributors are almost begging people to steal their shit.
