Every now and then (okay, mostly once a week) the MPAA does something stupid and I feel like rushing to my blog and calling for the organisation to be banned, or at the very least for it's bosses to be taken out and public flogged; but then I realise there's no point, because stuff like this is going to cause the MPAA to self destruct; or at the very least, disappear up it's own backside.
Los Angeles , CA - The MPAA is lobbying congress to push through a new bill that would make unauthorized home theaters illegal. The group feels that all theaters should be sanctioned, whether they be commercial settings or at home.
MPAA head Dan Glickman says this needs to be regulated before things start getting too far out of control, "We didn't act early enough with the online sharing of our copyrighted content. This time we're not making the same mistake. We have a right to know what's showing in a theater."
