It reminds me of an old article I read back when oink.cd was shut down, criticizing the music industry: http://www.demonbaby.com/blog/2007/10/when-pigs-fly-death-of... I don't like labeling the whole SOPA case as "Hollywood vs. Silicon Valley", but in a way Hollywood is like the major record labels. However, I'm not sure it's a dying industry. This is exactly where entrepreneurs and innovative startups can come in and help those old industries adapt to a not-so-new reality through advertisements, accessibility, convenience, etc. |

I think Louis CK's workaround is also interesting (https://buy.louisck.net/). Instead of trying to make his performance video unhackable, he set it at a price low enough to not be worth the effort - and his sales soared through the roof.
