I can't decide whether this is a step toward the future, or trashy. Yes, pretty much everything is becoming more accessible through online databases. So there's really no reason for permits to stay behind on the times. However, this industry already seems so sketchy to me. There are so many young girls and boys moving to Los Angeles in hopes of being actors and actresses. I know this is difficult for many of us to imagine, but they do believe it will be easy. I think having these permits so accessible only makes it seems easier. In a generation already filled with promises of instant gratification, I am not sure that I promote those same promises being made in this particular field.
