In class on Monday we talked about how it is illegal to download software and then share this software elsewhere. When we talked about how movies are being “bootlegged” we said this should be okay to share with someone else, but then it becomes a problem when that person starts to sell it to multiple people. However, this is sometimes a great thing for movie theaters because these movies being copied and sold do not contain the extra footage. I know when I want all the footage of a movie, I eventually will have to either rent the movie or buy that particular movie. One thing I have noticed that we also discussed is the number of movies out in theaters. The number of movies have become fewer and fewer each year. IS this is a good thing? I mean people will wait for these movies to come out, and are more willing to go to the theaters because there are fewer movies to choose from. I mean movie theaters are becoming more and more expensive. Just the other day I went to see Never Back Down and to buy water and a box of Reese’s pieces they charged me $7.50. That is up surd, and I don’t know who would regularly pay that kind of money for two items. Next time I know to go to the Kroger that is right next store to the Amstar theaters. Movie theaters definitely make their money from the concession stands and not the tickets.
