tlbauerie, Rikter posted that CleanFlick members are buying a copy of the film (DVD) and paying an additional fee for the edited version (DVDr). Rental places like Blockbuster buy copies of the films. So that form of compensation has been agreed upon, between those companies.

The debate by directors against CleanFlick-like companies, is that the director's vision is violated by these companies, and if the people who rent the movies have any respect for artistic merits, they should not rent movies from these kind of companies.

Here's the Soderbergh clip from the Bleep! doc on SW fan edits:

I don't understand why CleanFlick members feel they need to consume media which they object to on any level. The world has so much stuff in it, why waste so much time focusing on this 'crap'. In "It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World" there's a great quote about the United States and breasts, and unfortunately the quote is just as relevant today as it was in 1963. That's depressing....
