Ummm..........
The suit has nothing at all to do with US law - read the article next time.
RClark was just speaking from the typical "US-Centric Worldview" that most Americans seem to have.
This is actually about the World Intellectual Property Organization Copyright Treaty.
Also the allegations about "millions of dollars of lost revenue" are BS. It's been determined that most people that make a pirate copy of a rental would never have bought the title to begin with. They are like pack-rats building a "huge movie collection" - that they never would have considered building at all were they to have to buy the real DVDs.
I share the overall optimism that the case can be disposed of.
