    This article[^] was in the Daily Mail discussing online piracy. My thoughts on this is that the content providers are their own worst enemy. I would happily subscribe to 2 or 3 services that delivered the content I want in the format I want (no commercials). Instead the providers insist on creating their own delivery systems. So now I have to subscribe to 3, 4, 5, or more at $10 a month to get the programs I want to see and my list of must watch is not that long. I currently have cable, hulu, and netflix. Now a new Star Trek series comes out and they want me to subscribe to see that one program? No thanks, now I'll see if I can find it somewhere else.

            I thought it was the only way you get all those ARRRRR rated movies!

            I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended. I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended. Freedom doesn't mean the absence of things you don't like. Dave

              This is exactly why I have given up on watching anyone TV show. If its not on one of the services I subscribe to, then I don't care. Though, if I could find all of the GunSmoke episodes and a few other TV shows from that era...As they are no longer shown any where I have found.


              Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
