Piracy in the Motion Picture Industry

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the evolution of film piracy, tracing its origins within the film industry as studios initially stole from each other. As the industry expanded, external piracy emerged, with stolen content often ending up overseas to evade detection. By the mid-1970s, Hollywood's major studios had managed to control piracy effectively, but the advent of videocassettes reignited the issue, leading to new challenges in protecting intellectual property.
