until you see some slime profit from your hard work by simply copying it... it's easy to talk about how evil drm, and copyrights are. I know photographers, great photographers, that were stunned when they googled their images and found them front and center on some scumbags webpage, claimed as theirs. musicians go thru the same ordeal. This isn't just about Hollywood, it affects creators who are far from rich.

Wouldn't watermarking solve this problem? Then people would know the original owners. Other people can't get away with claiming them as their own.
