“ ‘That’s bad business. How long do you think I’d stay in operation if every time I pulled a job, it cost me money? If he’d just pay me what he’s spending to make me stop robbin’ him, I’d stop robbin’ him.’
Butch Cassidy in ‘Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid’ - this line cracked me up because now 40+ years later it’s a great echo of the crap media companies are pulling today desperately trying to keep old business models alive. Undoubtedly spending more than they’ve ever lost trying to stop people ‘robbing’ them. If they just took that $ and put it into creating a product that was desirable and easy to obtain at a reasonable price they eliminate the problem.
