Nobody has to get on the plane if you have people there from the begging. Like websites have with their large communities that are spread around the world.

I demand that everything related to copyright and licensing SHALL be rephrased into "paying for a license" rather than "buy", and that the phrase "buy the game/movie/song now" shall be ILLEGAL!
At least in Sweden there are laws that says that this is to lie to the customers (or at least distort information) in a way that is harmful to them.
So in theory I could sue any given record store here and say that they are fooling their customers to think that they own what they have payed for when they don't.
Oh, wait - I don't have to sue since it's against "criminal law" rather then "civil law", so I just have to report it!
Not really.
Internet is email, IM, distributed processing, etc...
It's communication.
What do you mean with content? Photographs and videos? IP data packages? Everything stated in communications? Everything that's sent in between computers?

"The lack of industry leadership championing economic returns threatens consumer choice and survival of niche TV channels."
The lack of dominating giants making the rules will give less space for niche TV channels and making it harder for indipendent producers to create stuff and distribute their work in indipendent channels.
Industry leadership means big TV networks. Economic returns means money to then big TV networks. Less giants and less money directed to the giants will leave lesser space to small TV networks according to them, because like with the internet - if there are no big sites where everything are that are moderated by internet giants, then there wouldn't be any small sites.
Yeah, sure. There absolutely weren't several millions sites already before Google (who actually are a search engine rather than a public directory with 100 sites.)
... Wait a little now, what did just happen here...!?
Somebody's logic just broke.
The idea is basicly that if some blood-sucker can trick one person to pay for something, then it should be illegal for averybody else to not pay for it in order to protect the business for the blood-sucker who profits on it.

They're talk about incentives are stupid.
Re: (as Natanael L)
No, you are mistaken - EVERYBODY shall pay for whatever they want you to pay for!
And the $300 billion - they are probably talking about their own profits that will decrease with $300 billion.
Re: Well, then (as Natanael L)
Indeed. Because it's criminal to not pay.
The idea is basicly that if some blood-sucker can trick one person to pay for something, then it should be illegal for averybody else to not pay for it in order to protect the business for the blood-sucker who profits on it.
Re: (as Natanael L)
Yes. You did something without somebody profiting on it. That's evil.
...
Please continue.
