You've heard the story. Legendary director extraordinaire Joss Whedon makes a brilliant series called Firefly that gets mangled by Fox. The series is a hit on DVD, and the groundswell of fans encourages Universal into make a big damn movie called Serenity. Universal itself encouraged guerilla marketing to promote the movie with contests on its own website for fanart, as did Joss Whedon.

Now that fandom is no longer useful, Universal is taking action to shut down guerilla marketers it once promoted.

Never fear, for Browncoats are an ingenious lot.

Squee! Brilliant Screen Entertainment is talking about doing a Season 2 of Firefly in a different format. They're taking a poll to see how people want the episodes: monthly DVDs, TV on Demand (from satellite or cable), or computer downloads. They're in negotiations to get the rights to the series from Fox. Wish them well and go tell them what you think!
