This TED talk highlights the staggering losses to the entertainment industry due to piracy.

This is a really hilarious talk.

Agreed. Especially the part about the "Ringtone Piracy".

That was a very sobering article. I need to rethink my habit of leaving my billion dollar ipod in the glove box of my car.

Does the negative job-loss in the entertainment industry mean that they had to hire people just to fire them, or that they had to get other industries not related to entertainment to fire some of their people?

I'm asking because that might help explain why so many Quizno's closed down in my area over the last year.

They closed down because of all the pirated sandwiches you've been making at home, matey.

Well dang, that explains why Borders went out of business.

I think it's time we got the supermarkets to cooperate in voluntary restrictions to put an end to sandwich piracy. Once you've been accused three times of making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at home then they restrict your access to make this impossible.

No more jelly!

(Of course the miscreants will probably just go to the hole-in-the-wall neighbourhood shop around the corner and buy jelly out of the back door.)

I heard you can make your own jelly at home. *gasp* Don't tell the sammich police, or Grandma will be taken away in cuffs.

Better shut down the websites that will tell you where to get hold of peanut butter, jelly, and bread too. They are enabling sandwich piracy.

There may or may not be a sandwich bay that uses rapidly shifting IP's so that you can pirate your own sandwiches but we cant tell you where for legal reasons!
