Does Valentii get it? The law already allows copies!
"It legalizes hacking," Jack Valenti, head of the Motion Picture Association of America, said of the proposed changes. "It allows you to make a copy or many copies, and the 1000th copy of a DVD, Mr. Chairman, is as pure and pristine as the original. You strip away all the protective clothing of that DVD and leave it naked and alone."

Such a paid hack!

The problem is the illegal distribution - stifen the penalties there Jack. Oops, you afraid you might get caught up in the tougher penalties on selling artists works without proper compensation ... you should be! Get off the consumers backs, police the supply side - your allies!
