As the days go on, this is clearly becoming less a matter of facts at hand and more a boiling over of old media vs. new media attitudes that have been simmering for 15 years.&lt;p&gt;I know what this conflict is like first hand. I work on the tech/web side of an old media company. Everything becomes us vs. them, and everything appears on the surface to have ulterior motive, when in fact it almost always first stems from a serious lack of understanding, which breeds frustration, which breeds paranoia, which breeds stupid bills like SOPA, with actual ulterior motives and all.&lt;p&gt;Honestly, I&apos;m interested what types of companies PG and YC think will &quot;kill Hollywood.&quot; My feeling is that killing it will necessitate a much, much more understanding and symbiotic approach to Hollywood than many on HN are willing to acknowledge.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Investigate Dodd and the MPAA for bribery after public threats to congress</title><url>http://wh.gov/KiE</url><text></text></story>

It might be a good start, but I really feel that you&apos;d need more overarching change to actually make a difference.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Investigate Dodd and the MPAA for bribery after public threats to congress</title><url>http://wh.gov/KiE</url><text></text></story>
