This is just too funny.
NBC has been trying alot lately to get congress to pass bills on p2p file sharing claiming everything from terrorist to child pornography.
Now it seems they also claim that since people are downloading movies they are not buying the popcorn at the theaters so its hurting the american farmer who grows the popcorn.
"In the absence of movie piracy, video retailers would sell and rent more titles. Movie theatres would sell more tickets and popcorn. Corn growers would earn greater profits and buy more farm equipment
