   With Gnutella, Kazaa and other running at full force, in a bad economy and the ever increasing price on movie tickets Hollywood still managed to break all records with Spiderman. Episode 2 was close behind. Why did those movies succeed? Because people wanted to see them. I'm not about to drop $10 to go see every movie that comes out because I owe it to Hollywood. I'll see anything that I deem worth my hard earned money. Hollywood does not have the right to break sales records. Records are not medians. Medians are not guarantees. Matrix 2 will eventually be on Gnutella yet it will still sit atop the box office charts for a few weeks and rake in many millions of dollars in its very first week alone. I may download it but I'm going to see it in the theather at least once. Sitting in front of an 8 inch window is not the same as sitting in front of a 50 foot screen. I also plan on buying the DVD when it comes out.
