That still leaves what seems to be a disturbingly small amount for the remainder of the world. Fortunately, the IIPA, of which the MPAA is a member, made sure there was no confusion and let us all know in late September 2006 that Canadian movie piracy accounts for approximately 23% of all DVD piracy. Of course, looking at their own documentation, we can see that the MPAA has documented that the source for only 1

CANADAA CTV report states that Canadian piracy costs the movie industry approximately $6 billion each year. Interestingly enough, that’s the same figure estimated to have been lost by camcording piracy alone in New York according to an American Press report. That same report states that the MPAA claims that New York City camcording piracy accounts for approximately 40% of all movie piracy. So, by that logic, Canadian movie piracy also accounts for approximately 40% of all movie piracy, leaving 20% for the rest of the world. That figure could be off, due to differences in the Canadian and American dollars and the exact cost in each country’s native currency and conversion to the American dollar, but I’m comfortable saying that it wouldn’t convert to less than 35% of all movie piracy.Owners of copyright in films and television programs are protected under the Canadian Copyright Act, which provides that copyright includes the exclusive right to make copies, to perform the works in public and to communicate them to the public by telecommunication, such as by broadcast or over the Internet. Limited exemptions from liability for private copying of music on sound recordings do not apply to films and television programs. Someone who deals in infringing copies may also be liable for infringement even thought they did not actually make the infringing copies.
Copyright owners may sue infringers. In addition, criminal charges may be brought against anyone who makes or imports infringing copies for sale or rental or who sells, rents or distributes infringing copies. Infringers may also be prosecuted under the fraud provisions of the Criminal Code.
The Radiocommunication Act also provides for civil actions and criminal proceedings for signal theft.

Linking is an easy way to be noticed by search engines and to ensure your SEO campaign is successful. The more relevant links your site has, the more valuable your site becomes. However, sites that contain few links may not be considered to be of much value. Links play a very important role in your website’s PageRank. Google, MSN, and others currently use multiple link popularity analyses as a ranking critera, assuming that a web site that is linked to by other sites of similar interest will be a more valid search result to users.By providing great information on your website, many other sites will w

An online home based business is ideal for anyone who has some spare time, such as a mother who has opted to look after her children rather than continue with her full time job, or anyone who is otherwise unemployed. There are many opportunities for such people to earn money online, even if not as the main household income.The first, and major, advice I would give to anybody embarking on a home based business is not to overstretch yourself financially. Make a plan and set a budget for expenditure that you can afford. In spite of what you may read or hear, no internet business will be successful wit

I guess that by now most of us would know what a blog is. The word Blog is the short or Web Log, and the term Blogosphere refers to what the online community of people who blog, sometimes which are hyperlinked very extensively with each other.The key differences between a blog and a normal website is that blogs are frequently updated, and most blogs use a very personal language, representative to the personality of the author the blog.Through the past few years, the numbers of blogs have grown tremendously and exponentially, and today, even people without technical education can set up an acco

A customer’s purchase is overcharged by $10.00. The store policy is clear… “No cash refunds” so the sales associate refuses to issue the refund even though the mistake was hers. The customer was told he would have to accept a store credit or wait for a cheque to be issued by head office.A customer wants to exchange a sale item she bought three hours earlier but the store policy states, “All sales are final.” The employee adamantly refuses to exchange the item for the customer.What is the likelihood that these customers will buy from those stores again? I think it would be safe to say they won’
That still leaves what seems to be a disturbingly small amount for the remainder of the world. Fortunately, the IIPA, of which the MPAA is a member, made sure there was no confusion and let us all know in late September 2006 that Canadian movie piracy accounts for approximately 23% of all DVD piracy. Of course, looking at their own documentation, we can see that the MPAA has documented that the source for only 179 pirated DVDs since 2004 has been camcording. During the same time frame, over 1400 movies were released by MPAA members, which means that camcording accounts for approximately 12.8% of all pirated DVDs over two years, at the very most. Taking the remainder of the MPAA documentation into account, Michael Geist has estimated that Canadians account for approximately 3% of all camcording piracy.
The other problem that this whole fiasco, and also all previous reports, fails to address is the short lifespan of camcorded copies. People are rarely satisfied with poor qualities, and camcorded copies in general are perfect examples of very poor quality copies. People will generally tend towards a better quality copy, and so camcorded copies fail to be useful once a DVD release is made. With tools such as BackupHDDVD available, it won’t be long before high-def copies begin to replace standard DVD copies as the ultimate download desired. Of course, if we just ignore piracy for a minute, we might realize that the entertainment industry (this isn’t limited just to the MPAA, but the RIAA and other entertainment organizations as well!) could try putting out content that’s actually good, and then try charging a reasonable price for that content.
The best part is, the American government and entertainment industry spent less than six months to pressure the Canadian government into this pointless legislation.
