   I agree with you, but Disney does have the right to decide what is or   
   is   
   not appropriate for IT to distribute! Now if you can show Disney is   
   working to stop Warners or Fox or Paramount (or some smaller group   
   that   
   has nothing to do with Disney) from distributing the film, then you   
   have   
   a point.
