Pirating Movies
from the napster-of-video dept
Ever wanted instant free access to a movie? Well, the folks at the Motion Picture association of America are worried that you just might get your wish soon through Gnutella. This seems a little overhyped because even though this is possible through Gnutella, for most users the download time would make it far too tiresome to download movies on the same scale as music (due to huge file sizes). However, once more people get home broadband access it just might make the movie industry rethink its business model in the same way that Napster is affecting the record industry.
