Markos Moulitsas - 02/07/12 06:50 PM ET

Looking livelier than he has all campaign, an exuberant Mitt Romney took the stage after his victory in the Nevada caucuses to proclaim: “Tonight, I want to thank the people of Nevada. Once again, you have given me your vote of confidence.” He also tweeted, “Thank you NV! Our message of restoring America’s greatness continues to resonate through the west & across the country.”

The advent of the Internet has unleashed a sea change upon Hollywood and the music industry. From Napster to YouTube to Torrent, new technologies that empower the free flow of information have also enabled copyright piracy.

Backlash hits banks
