Lists a whole bunch of things which they could control, but have not traditionally, and then conflates them with something which they genuinely don't control (Holywood interest).

Well, frankly, do you think the people downloading on the darknet give a flying nut about tradition, my dear? Maybe the traditions of what Authors control in their contracts needs to change... if Hobbits on Mars are important to your book's sales in this day and age you (or your agent) better start researching dwarfism and space flight.
