How long will the movie industry feel this way?
Right now they say it just isn't worth going after movie dl'ers because not many people take the time and effort to dl such huge files........

Not much longer. With companies like MediaForce proliferating and lawyers starting to tap a new source of revenue the business of copyright protection will take on a life of it's own.

The movie industry is getting increasingly worried. For example, their adult entertainment section has lately learned that Dawn's downloads alone cause them approximately this much losses per month...

"Disney allows movie downloads Deal with Movielink includes recent releases Disney and Movielink will make such films as "Monsters Inc.," "Chicago," "Gangs of New York," "The Recruit," "25th Hour" and "The Jungle Book 2" available for download at prices ranging from $2.95 to $4.99." It's a start.

Know what? I think that's pretty cool then after thinking a bit harder and back to the RIAA........
If one can download an entire freakin 2 hour movie for $3 or 5 bucks, ya gotta be pretty dumb to pay $1.00 (or whatever the going rate is) for a 3 minute .mp3? Hmmmmmmm......... |

It is a start but quite restrictive if you are used to p2p distribution. You can keep the downloaded movie for 30 days but when you start watching it, it will remain usable only for the next 24 hours, and then it is gone. So no way to collect a movie library, not to talk about sharing anything.

It's pretty much the same thing as DIVX DVD's, but without the DVD. Eventually they'll start doing video on demand services that act pretty much like pay per view on cable TV. Paranoid as the MPAA may be, they're a little more level headed than the RIAA. A two hour movie that costs half as much as a one hour music album is definitly a better deal.
