hello list,

I'm working on an article about the effects of downloading films (be it 
'legal' or 'illegal' copies) on the movie business, ticket sales, income 
of film makers. I would like to compare the view points and arguments of 
ABDF and the like (www.houdedief.be) with that of theatre owners, film 
makers, journalists, copyright/left scholars & activists.

some questions to ask: is there a problem, yes or no, why & what's 
people's solutions if there is one? what do figures say? what about the 
role of the dvd sales?

I would like to ask you people if you have any suggestions for this 
article. are there people you think I should talk to? studies I should 
look at? other interesting info?  do you know about previous articles 
about this?

thanks for any info,
-- bruno
