THat's why i haven't joined to be honest. I love the idea, i love the concept, but there's only maybe two sites i've ever seen the button on. I do keep pumping it to artist friends online in the hopes of it getting more acceptable though.
Disks? lmao. this is why, the sooner that netflix cuts away the cancer that is DVD's the better. Every dollar wasted on obsolete media would be better invested in streaming content.
The only media I pay for anymore is Netflix. I know for certain i'd pay twice as much, if i could get the content i wanted, AT LEAST, because that's how much i pay for my btguard membership, another 7.99.
On the bright side, thanks to all those panicking idiots last year i was able to buy my very first stock when netflix was down to 60 bucks a share. I think i'm up about 25% already.

Outspending them isn't an option, now that money is speech, and corps are people.
outliving them may be, going by the drug war numbers in another decade or two all these dinosaurs should have died off. But i can't help thinking that there's always another batch incubating at some ivy league prep school.
i was just on my way to mention this. Seems likely someone redirected the domain just to screw with the court orders. It makes a good story either way :P
"I'm curious to see how the pro-SOPA folks who declare that everyone who has raised these concerns is just a "piracy apologist" will respond to this one."
