THE FUTURE OF DRM. Rights are overrated! The so called copyright protection of intellectual property is an exercise in futility. Provided you have standing, you better have money to protect your interests in the courts, which can take forever. If you win, you see a dime on the dollar. Since you cannot copyright an idea, you're merely protecting the execution of an idea. The stated goals of many production companies are to infringe on copyrights and even though they are routinely answered with cease and decist demands, by then the damage is done. No point fighting on, there are no rewards. The corporate trend among the majors is to intimidate the independent movie makers and their public by bringing out the big guns. They're the guns of Navarone and defeating them can kill you. Don't be P2Ping the blockbusters. So what's the future then for the little voices? What if you have an idea? What if you want to produce it and make money too? STEALTH! Technology will invent itself faster than law. The P2P debate proves that. Stealth allows terrorists to have a blast. London proves that. When pea shooters unite they become large visible weapons themselves and they can be defeated. You don't want that! But STEALTH TECHNOLOGY will allow filmmakers to work under the radar. In and out movie productions will be fleeting on the air while the majors are still in post. Millions of home bodies will dry their tears online! The NEW DIGITAL DIRECTORS will replace the dying breed of copy writers. To save time, production assistants will write storyboards after the fact. There will be a rush of actors to become real people again and agents will go to casting calls. Cameras will have satellites and scrambled PayPall encoders built in and weekend revenues will be deposited in tax free accounts in Dubai. Oh yeah, every independent film maker will have their own broadcast facility. Just like evangelists.
