Point Missing
You miss one critical point that the media distributors (who are governed by hollywood and their idiot execs) don't tell you... they have FAT pockets and will do anything they can to fill them. They really aren't looking at factual statistics, they are looking at fictional theories of loss... they are on a Crusade and don't care if they lose a small percent of the honest consumer... that is part of their equation... They are a legalized mafia... PERIOD!
