Now if that IPod is worth eight billion dollars, I don't even want to guess what my multi-TB HDD's are worth.

If only I could sell my PC and fix the US debt crisis...

I would say this belongs in the awesome random videos thread, but it's so awesome it totally warrants it's own thread. Piracy to the media economy can't possibly be hurting as much as they mentioned. There are so few movies that don't make a killing on their opening night at the theater to begin with... browsing IMDB alone will tell you that. I've always believed that it just boils down to the guys at the top just upset that they weren't able to buy another 10 diamond encrusted hummers this year like they did the last.

Boo, freakin' hoo.

lol thats part of the piracy debate that i have an issue with, just completely bogus statistics. its so unreasonable and stupid that it takes away from their argument.

So by that math

Songs
Avg length 4 mins
Theoretical loss $150,000
Loss Per minute $37560
Per second $675
Actual Loss $0.99

Movies
Avg Length 120 mins (2 hours)
Theoretical loss $150,000
Loss Per minute $1250
Per second $20.83
Actual Loss $15-30

Looks like whoever got into movies picked the wrong theoretical career.
