Thanks for that information.

At least EME proponents can no longer claim that the Hollywood companies
are not involved in these discussions. The MPAA certainly is the main
lobbyist for those companies.

So this mailing list will be the place of a public showdown with the
MPAA. We will see how that will develop.

Cheers,
Andreas
