But you're not comparing apples to apples, or even apples to oranges. You're equating sales and distribution of a physical product (VHS video) with digital media. Two markets as different as night and day, with significantly different limiting and non-limiting factors.

I spent 15 years in retail sales/management prior to doing this Interweb thing 12 years ago, so I think I have a pretty good grasp of the similarities and differences. There are some aspects that do translate from one to the other, but many others that simply do not. Pirating being a prime example. It was a minimal issue with VHS because the average consumer didn't have the means to make more than a few copies for friends. Entirely the opposite for digital media.
