This is maybe the stupidest thing I have ever heard...

The MPAA defines a home theater as any home with a television larger than 29" with stereo sound and at least two comfortable chairs, couch, or futon. Anyone with a home theater would need to pay a $50 registration fee with the MPAA or face fines up to $500,000 per movie shown.

rrrrrrrrrright

It's totally fake... It's just that it doesn't seem too far fetched for one of those groups. :D

From bbspot's about page:

Called "the world's greatest tech humour site" by The Register, BBspot creates entertainment for the geekier side of the world. BBspot produces a variety of features like fake news stories satirizing the tech and political worlds, the BBspot Mailbag which pokes fun at the Believers (people who believe our fake news) and much more.

I wasn't actually aware that the whole site was satire, but I've seen quite a few of their funny articles.
