Well holy crap! Read this article and prepare to be ticked off. To sum up, the MPAA, one of the groups behind the RIAA suits against people for sharing files online (the group that is suing grandmothers who don't even know how to use their computers, much less share files) has a wonderful new idea. They want to define home theatres as anything with an over 29" TV as a "Home Theatre" and require a $50 license fee for any movies shown on said system. Their logic is that when we rent movies, we rent them for ourselves, and should have to pay them extra money if friends see the movie as well.
Ain't gonna happen unless Congress sells out the American people yet again.
