This and so much this. And more this. It's going to be years, probably, before they understand a couple of things:
Stopping piracy is so much easier if you change your business models to keep up with the times and give people what they want (cheap, easy, digital access) than to try to legislate it out of existence.
Stopping people from creating fan content will destroy the fanbase that pays them the most money.
It seems so obvious, but they're determined to cling to outdated business models and an UTTER lack of understanding as to how fandom works and therefore lines their pockets.
