against the MPAA and DVD Copy Control Association for collusion, price-fixing, and restraint of trade. While Real may lose this one since Judge Patel is notoriously favorable to Hollywood interests, they may uncover yet another smoking gun that MPAA is illegally working to stamp out all consumer rights to copyrighted material.
For myself, I donate to the EFF and a couple of other organizations who campaign against copyright abuse by the big corporations. That includes donating to opponents of legislators like Lamar Smith who have long been on the take from Hollywood.
The real message here (pardon the pun) is that consumer rights are easily trampled on unless the consumers wake up and do something about it. That's you and me, not Real or some college law professor.
