THE ENTERTAINMENT MARKET
It's not a "free money" argument. It's about a fair market.
If we were talking stocks in Google, which someday releases an iPhone buster with unlimited free minutes for $50/month, the stock would go through the roof. There's no cap that says "oh, well, if you invested at $400 a share, you can only realize a benefit up to $450 a share". That would be considered ridiculous.
Bottom line is that people are going to stop investing in StarBonds and Blockbusters if they can't get their full ROI. If this thing is ever going to go "real money" people are not going to stand for earnings caps when it affects their wallet.
Your argument that the cap originated when a $250m+ was rare so why change it now that it happens every month is totally erroneous. In fact, more than ever, now is the time to change it to catch up with the times.
What's with all this "that's the way it's always been" crap on the forums? Anyone notice the huge site revamp a few weeks ago? Anything is possible! Demand it!

Ok, I just read this one. So my rant on Movies Board should be valid here too, if not more. Aug 11, 10:37
