Oh I am going to love this!
Robert, you and I have met on a number of occasions, and no, I do not work for a studio. Perhaps if I remind you of a meeting in St. Louis a year or so ago with your V.P. and the discussion we had then would help.

If I remember correctly we were talking about your companies efforts to develop an add-in to Microsoft PowerPoint to convert it to DVD. (Starting to remember now?) During that meeting your VP talked endlessly about how your company had to develop products that weren't illegal in nature and didn't have all the "legal hassles". Another person at the meeting asked what you meant and that is when you admitted you KNEW with no doubt what your customers were using the product for and made the off hand comment that probably 90% used it for illegal ends. It was at that point your VP commented that if "the law" ever figured out the difference between pirating and "fair use" your company would close it's door.

Now, do you care to claim ignorance??? If so I have some other interesting quetions on previous coversations...
