No one would ever allow this. The fact is, though, that the media industry would so wish it to be this way. Every day they push harder towards this extreme. Someone else has to push the other way. Then we find a compromise. Of course it is absurd. No one would ever allow this. The fact is, though, that the media industry would so wish it to be this way.

The absurdity is appalling and intends more to stir paranoia than to start or continue any reasonable discussion on the subject. The fact is that studios pay a lot of money to make movies, TV shows, what have you, and they own those creations afterwards. There is nothing wrong with charging you for their product. As for my memory, that is the residual after buying their product, and what good is it to see a movie if you can't remember it to discuss with your friends or what have you. And I would argue that stepping through the DFWBB amounts to assault anyway. Unreasonable, I believe the logical fallacy we see here is the slippery slope.
