> That is not a reason or an answer to that question. [...] The question was why couldn't the material be packaged up in any other ways?

Re-read the original question by jcerelier, who explicitly asked why consumers don't have the right to view all the uncut footage: "What are good reasons for not having this right by default ?" [1]

> No one denies that whoever creates something has the right to dispose of it however they wish.

That's not correct. From another comment: "I'd rather have no notion of private ownership of ideas, knowledge and cultural goods at all." [2]

> What's the "good reason" it can't be? Does it kill any babies?

That's a really stupid argument to make. What's the "good reason" you don't send me 100 Euros? Would it kill any babies?
