We want to make as many movies commercially available online as possible,
I believe that the politicians in Russia need to make this a much higher priority.
The Supreme Court in its ruling sent a strong and clear message that businesses based on theft should not and will not be allowed to flourish, ... The clarity of the court's decision combined with this settlement provides the content and technology sectors a window of opportunity which I think ultimately will greatly benefit consumers.
But ultimately, I'm not sure what impact it will have. I don't think people will want to watch a 1 1/2- or two-hour movie on something the size of their hand, but it could have value to advertise and promote movies. We're generally encouraging online movies, and there are all sorts of ways of working against piracy, ... the biggest threat to our industry.
Despite increasing competition for consumers' time and entertainment dollars, theater-going remains a satisfying constant in people's lives.

As an industry we recognize the need for more innovation in the area of portability and copyright protection. We want people to be able to enjoy movies on various home entertainment devices without infringing on copyright laws, and we will continue to look for ways to marry those concepts so people can get movies hassle free at a reasonable cost.
Concern over the war in Iraq and weakness in the job market has caught up with President Bush,
Digital File Check is easy to use and can help people prevent their employees, children and others from illegally downloading and swapping movies.
Corn, soy beans, wheat, cattle, things are generally pretty weak all over the place.
