oh and btw what original content is produced by a vcr.
As someone who lived through the birth and evolution of the VCR I know about the piracy effect of them. You needed 2 or more VCRs to duplicate a video and the tapes weren't free. Most of the piracy was people duplicating and selling the videos. Also the duplication from a shop bought per recorded video tape to a shop blank video tape was awful. Most professional duplicators working for the owner of the original content used a Betacam master.

parody and commentary are both free speech and should remain free speech. Copyright material isn't free speech. Putting the 2 together doesn't make them both free speech.

And that is the amazing thing. These tubes could BUY all of their content so cheap and just be hassle free. But they choose to be crooks.
Because of years of free porn. Karma sucks.

Should the train companies and banks adapted to people robbing them by opening their doors. Or by going after the thieves?

Your example of adaptation is stupid. You just want everything cheaper. God luck making a living as a n affiliate, because that's the only place left to cut costs in online porn.
