is miramax still independent?
341995
Miramax Films was originally created in order to distribute independent films which were deemed commercially unviable at the major studios. The company acquired a number of films which did extraordinarily well financially and the company was one of the leaders of the independent film revolution of the 1990s. But in 1993 Miramax was purchased by The Walt Disney Company. Harvey and Bob Weinstein ran Miramax until they left the company on September 30, 2005. During their tenure, the Weinstein brothers ran Miramax independently of other Disney companies. However, Disney now has the final say on what Miramax releases ( Fahrenheit 9/11 and Dogma are examples of movies vetoed by the big mouse).

It doesn't appear to be.  It's trading as an OTC stock - QUTEF.PK - last close (as of this answer).  It appears that they bought out SGI.  Looking at employment opportunities I get the impression that they don't really care that much about  their employees.  They don't give any information about benefits, work environment, etc.  Maybe it's a British thing.  Good luck.

If what you say is fact (which I will research after I answer this) Then I say I have a serious problem with a single ownership of media.  Just as I've always have had with the monopolies of the telephone companies.  We have only made the great strides and advancements we have in telecommunications because they broke up the monopolies.  Thanks for the heads up!

-I don't think so. I've watching them too but I think we missed the time to buy a year or so ago. Best to wait until they stabilize and re-analize the situation.

No, no.  The board is not independent. After all they are appointed by management.  Sure the shareholders get to approve them but that is about it.  They draw a salary plus they are awarded stock options.  Why would they not want to serve on the board?  Attend 4 board meeting a year, and for that take home a nice piece of change.  Also membership on one board normally leads to membership on other boards.  The business community is very chumy. \n\nThey do on occasions show an independent spirit if management is about to make a really bone headed decision and there is a member of the board that is willing to lead the other members in opposition to the decision.  I have known a couple of instances of that happening.  I have also know the board members to summarily fire the CEO.  Normally such a move is instigated behind the scenes by a board member who happens to own a very large portion of the shares of stock with the CEO finding out about his/her demise at the board meeting.

No, there isn't.  The person pulling up Wikipedia should have looked at the last line of the first paragraph.\n\n"It is not an independent state."

the makers of DVDxCopy are out of business because of the MPAA. \n\nThere are forums and sites for support but the company is gone so official support is nowhere to be found.

If they are MSC Widgets, and make $ for Microsoft, sure, they support em all day long, or until the license runs out, then there is no more support. \nAnything you develop on a Windows OS belongs to Microsoft, least that is what they are trying to say and so far it has been working. \nDo I have windows, sure, do I use it often, not really.
