The difference between 20 years ago and now is companies have been slowly setting up all the dominoes to make piracy nearly impossible in the near future. I don't think people are aware of how screwed we really are.

In Australia, a company can only sue an Australian for piracy for the value of buying or renting the media they pirated.

Company: "We're suing you to piracy!"

Aussie: "Here's $20, now fuck off."

It's just not worth it for these big companies to peruse us.
