Another example of why HK sucks these days. First selling out people who invested in HK because of Low Income Tax (Tax Eviction claim from the US), then prosecute impossible case about IP stealing which will never be successful under other domestic laws around the world.
This is why I won't go back to HK to work, because the lack of personal freedom. HK ppl are stupid if they don't fight this kind of corporation scheme.
IP is not comparable to property. One cannot prove they lose sales because of ppl sharing files, because almost all downloaders probably won't give a rat ass about watching these crap movies anyways. On the other hand, there are many smart consumers want to see if the movie is good to get DVD or Blu-ray copy to watch with home theatre, although they are not the majority. Stoping file sharing simply won't force the public to buy their crap. This is just a corporation sheme to milk out as much $$$ as possible in whatever means they can take (e.g. IFPI suing ppl in America to get $3K from each poor people who don't have the money/time and will to fight back). At the end, only the lawyers win.
I bought many music CDs and movies because I downloaded them and found out those are great entertainment. If not for files sharing, I won't discover m-flo and other great musicians around the world. The music industry or movie industry will simply lose customer like me if not file sharing.
