sorry that you think that the replies to the original post were motivated by liberal/conservative subtext.
[q]It is clear that there are plenty of thoughts on a broad subject. The true matter at hand is a very narrow legal issue. From response #1 it went beyond that. It need not be a conservative/liberal issue, but plenty are drawn to FYM threads for such discussions.[/q]
but those who have spoken out in defense of the studios have said the same thing over and over.
Frankly, I was surprised by the level of objection to the organization.
who's objecting to the organization? people are objecting to a specific practice -- just as i'd object to any company that sought to add in more violence, naughty words, boobies, etc., to a film -- and not the practice of the company itself. it has been noted that blockbuster does this to a certain extent, though they simply refuse to carry objectional material, they do not change the material itself.
also, many who have voiced strongest opposition are, themselves, artists. i'm sure it hits home for them.
