Great news, really.
They begin to 'get it'.
Ha!
Bwah-hahaha.
Yes!!!!!!!!!
The director of the indie movie I just finished mixing ("City Island") is

The producers had him cease and desist for about a week during production,
but blog comments convinced 'em it was the right thing to do.
One producer at a time...
The director also wants to break his previous movie ("Two Family House")
into 10-minute segments and put the whole thing on YouTube - and WILL
eventually. The director definitely gets it.
