Maybe I'm just a bit cynical, but it is a strange coincidence that the MPAA starts talking about being pro-consumer just as the courts start to push back against the RIAA's lawsuits against consumers.

whydidnt is right - this is pure PR shill-speak. The MPAA wouldn't be giving up their 'right' to prosecute consumers without getting something in return - and that's going to be one very large payoff. Undoubtedly something that will ensure their members survival through the transition into digital content.

Copyright that never expires anyone?
