Good time, hollywood emails talk about taking on Google.

Anyone wants the popcorn for that one?

The G rating for Googly seems appropriate.

The lawyers for Goliath best be armed with lots of non-filterable google-words if they want to get their point across.

With all the lawyer casualties at stake here, it is safe to say we are all winners.

Small update.

Google has to decided to accuse MPAA of being ***** for contracting an AG to take it down ( and for trying to break interwebz in the process )

I know what I want and I know what I think. Because of this, my ability to predict what may happen is somewhat hampered. Any less biased person can try to predict who will prevail?

To me it is all very confusing, couldn't google just buy the movie studios out? At this point they really could.

Then sue itself? Google isn't that big of a company. Twice the size of Disney, maybe, certainly smaller than Disney+Fox+whomever.

I will admit that I did not really believe it, but then I did lazy search and came up with two infographics that confirm it.

Hollywood has about 65 billion ( june 2009 to june 2010 - didn't see anything newer ) in annual cash coming in and Google is at 50 billion ( for 2012 ).

So I guess G can't just buy them outright. Still, could they go on an installment plan? Or maybe team up with other technology companies that do not want to worry about sopa-like legislation?

Why would they agree to letting Google buy them though, even if Google could afford it?

I am sure there are some within the pack that would want out.

That said, I am not sure it is a good idea anyway. G is already huge and already has a lot of influence. I am only surprised it didn't really flex any muscles yet.
