    an industry which throws away finished movies because they don’t want to spend the money to release it?

    yeah nah, you’re disqualified from an opinion on piracy.

      It is obvious profit is not their concern.

      Instead of releasing a film that by all accounts would have been profitable, so that they can create a loss for tax purposes.

      Why not maximize.profits, even if it means more taxes?

      The shareholders should have a legal case.

        I think the shareholders with enough shares to have influence are the ones who encourage this sort of behavior - if it’s a long-term profit at the expense of short term, they aren’t interested

        That’s my gut feeling on it anyways
