Well i'm just going to state my opinion here. We all know the government wants money. So if they opened their eyes and realized that they make more money from taxes if they keep the laws the way they are.
Let's say I'm doing other things in my life but then i stumble upon a zzirgrizz's mw2 montage. It inspires me to play. I get the old disc out of a
dusty case and pop it into my PS3. I get the rest of my friends to start playing MW2 again. One of my friends never got into MW2 and he felt left out so he went to go buy the game. *BAM* Now the government gets some money from the tax on the purchase.
If they pass the law then they don't get any money from that purchase because the video on youtube that inspired me to play MW2 again didn't exist. So i didn't play and I didn't get my friend to buy the game.
Some commentators have brought me to buy a game. I came to minecraft by watching a machinima commentary.
All online montages, commentaries and everything else is pretty much free advertising for the game developers.
If this law passes then lots of people will lose their jobs. Sales will dramatically drop, etc.
Sry for getting all raged up and stuff. It just makes no sense at all.
