| reply to openbox9 Greed. Pure and simple. Greed. I don't NEED it, I WANT it.
"Greed denotes desire to acquire wealth or possessions beyond the needs of the individual"
And, as well all know, GREED is GOOD! Not hypocritical, just greedy. -- The happiest countries are the most secular. The struggle AGAINST corporations is the struggle FOR humanity! |

join:2004-01-26 Alexandria, VA | reply to karlmarx My question still stands, if you have "more movies and tv shows than you could ever watch", what do you download? And why? Bragging rights? To screw the man? I'm truly trying to understand your hypocritical viewpoints. |

| reply to Matt Actually, I'm a senior manager, have a kickass system, with many many terrabytes of storage, a music collection second to none, more movies and tv shows than I could ever watch. I have my own house, 2 cars and a motorcycle (kawasaki Vulcan 900). I DON'T wear a helmet (don't have to), did fill out organ donor card. I'm moderately successful with a nice 6 figure salary.
Look at it this way, I 'could' afford to pay for everything I have. Instead, I keep my money, and get all my stuff for free. I do donate a lot to charity, but never, ever to the cult of religion.
As in the words of the might right wing republican nut case, 'Greed is Good'. Guess that means I'm very good, because I'm very very greedy. -- The happiest countries are the most secular. The struggle AGAINST corporations is the struggle FOR humanity! |

| reply to openbox9 said by openbox9 :I expected someone like you to post bragging about passing terabytes per month. That's why I used the word realistic. What do you do with your ~3.75 TBs (assuming equal upload/download) of downloaded content? Even assuming that you download uncompressed BD movies, you'd have to watch over five full movies every day of the month to come close to consuming what you're bragging about. What am I missing? He keeps his palms hairy, his music free, and his movies in shitty hand held video camera quality.
In other words, he lives in his Mom's basement and doesn't have a girlfriend.  |
