I am against the record companies trying to stop this.
tv show producers like Marc Guggenheim want their shows to be shared because

What makes the show so special, in my opinion, is exactly what makes it difficult to market. It?s hard to describe what the show is without showing you, y?know, the show. That?s why Greg and I wrote the pilot on spec ? i.e., without pitching it ? you need to see the show to get what it?s all about. Otherwise you?re tempted to dismiss it as ?the male Ally McBeal.? On the surface, that?s what the show looks like. But if you?ve seen any episodes, you know it?s not that at all. Bottom line, it makes marketing difficult.

most actual content producers (except for here) are not clueless, it the middlemen who are trying to stop it.
