The moral problem is that if you build a cottage industry
to manufacturer film you hasten the demise of the current
source. Then what happens if the cottage industry goes under,
or has enough of a monopoly to squeeze the price up and up.

I'm not crazy about big corporations, but if we have at least
2 of them competing, I feel a whole lot safer.
