Can someone answer why we can't download stuff? That doesn't make sense to me. If we're trying to show the big entertainment people that we don't care, shouldn't we ONLY be downloading things illegally?
I think its because we're only supposed to boycott big name medias. I think what we're supposed to support is the independent companies of books,music, and such. it says here

Regarding Black March: If you want to do something that makes a statement, consider shifting your money not only away from corporate media but to independent media. Buy comics published by someone other than DC and Marvel. Buy books from small and independent presses. Support independent production companies who fight to stay independent and fan-focused. Better yet, buy things directly from creators and artisans. Support independent retailers. Don't just blanket punish media producers and distributors—refocus those resources into supporting the ones who espouse and depend on free exchange of information and ideas. Because those are the people preserving intellectual freedom. Those are the people creating work of substance. And those are the people struggling to make a living, because they aren't bankrolled by the Corporate Elite lobbying for SOPA and PIPA.
I wish there was a FAQs though because it would help me understand better as well.
I think if you download illigally your in a way supporting the big names that are for the acts that will inevitably destroy the internet. Even if you're not buying your showing that you like their material enough to risk getting arrested or something. I could be wrong
