Dan Glickman

Dan Glickman, president of the Motion Picture Association of America, told the National Press Club that the Internet has fueled piracy of films, and that the organization plans to crack down on offenders. "We will begin suing those who are illegally trading our movies online," Glickman said. "The truth is that downloading a movie off the Internet is just as serious as walking out of Blockbuster with a DVD under your shirt."
