Re: [ Extreme] Has Rogers ever shut any one down for overusage?
said by dirtyjeffer  :sentence - "I pay for..."...those radio channels are included in your monthly subscription cost...Rogers then pays the "creator/distributor" of those channels, and the money feeds down the stream. in the case of downloading everything you want for free, there is no money exchanged, and no one is being paid for the content that is "for sale". What I'm trying to get to is if I pay for all of those TV channels and Music channels and pay for a DVD Movie rental with unlimited rentals.
"just because you don't like it, or you disagree with it, doesn't make it any more a right to do."
I do disagree with the business model, but I also believe that I do have a "fair" use right to do so.
In the end, on some months I may end up downloading 250 Gigs which is way over my allocated bandwidth, of perhaps tv show and music that's being broadcasted over the air (but I never download or care for music anyway) or DVD's that I already PAY a monthly subscription for.
If I'm paying for it, no matter what the business model is, I believe that I have a fair and ethical moral right to do so. |
