I would rather advocate legal purchase of the product than the alternative. Itunes, amazon, netflix, dvd, etc.

Just to note, the word "download" does not not necessarily mean to assume "illegal". In the past month my wife bought a book on Amazon. It was downloaded to her Kindle. And my daughter started the semester needing MS Office. She paid a license fee and downloaded it to her PC. In neither case did they physically touch anything. Amazing world these days.

you inferred it...I thought anyway.
And what's more you were right. ![]() But I do not feel bad downloading a show that runs on free cable and is offered for viewing immediately afterwards on the channel's own website. I record the show for my own enjoyment and not for sale or trade, then archive it to a disc for possible later viewing. If its a scumbag argument, I just paid my state use tax for $500 of products bought on Amazon in 2012. I didn't have to do it, Amazon did not report it to the state. I just thought it was right. All that said, I did not feel you were attacking me. I was just adding to the point that was being debated. Is this show on yet?!?! Last edited by OLS; 01-29-2013 at 08:37 AM. |

TBS and TVland, etc. Pay cable to me is HBO, SHOWTIME, et al. I KNOW you gotta PAY for all of it, but again, I do not. Just can't see the cost creep that is going on with 'bundling'. Even the most basic of crap is setting people back 50-60 bucks as part of a bundle of 100-150 bucks. I only watch entertainment TV 2 hours a night. I watch BBC World News and PBS Newshour when I get home from work, though, which bumps up my avg a bit. |

Quick follow up. If I wanted to watch TWD on a laptop, I would do that instead. The reason I download
it and burn it is so that I can watch it on a bigscreen TV. I could connect a cable, but with my laptop, it would not use the TV's proper potential scale-wise. I do not have even basic cable. I do not like to pay for TV that I rarely watch. I don't want to watch the glut of crap that cable TV forces on me just to justify having paid for it and having something to watch. There is no value in it to me. I could watch PBS 4-6 nights a week and be more than happy. But I do want to see the show. hehe. |
