Re: I dont care still! Nope,
I live alone and have no money, so I do what I have to do to save money. |

| So having no money justifies theft? You are why my costs are constantly going up. |

| wait, you actually BELEIVE the BS that the media MAFIAA dishes out that theft causes higher prices? they're making fist fulls of money daily, look at how well the actors and executives are doing. theft of digital entertain is not the same as theft of a physical good. |

Its your money, why pay someone for something you DO NOT WANT. I am not going to pay money to watch AD's and have limited control of my entertainment. So keep throwing your money away. We are the consumers with the money, they should listen to what we want and give us something that's worth our money. If they cant do that, then I will get it anyway I can.

said by DaMaGeINC:Nope, I live alone and have no money, so I do what I have to do to save money. You live alone, and have no money, but yet you still want what everyone else has to go to work for and earn the money to "have"... GREAT attitude!
... it certainly makes the rest of us honest, hard working Americans feel better that we go to work every day, earn an honest living, CHOSE what we are going to spend our money on so we can "have".. and our bills go up because the slackers and self appointed people out there can simply "take" what they want and justify it because "everyone else is fools"...
Karma.. enjoy it! |

You stopped being a "consumer" when you stopped spending your money.. Google is largely free, why don't you use it to look up some of these words you throw out there..
What you are, to be honest, is a thief.. don't try to justify it anyway to the rest of us because you won't chance our minds.. If you want to be a thief, then by all means, go for it.. don't try tellings the rest of us what's right or what's wrong..
If it's not "worth your money" then don't buy it.. but don't sit here trying to justify it to others at the same time as acceptable either... I'd tell you how I really feel, but the mods have a problem with me doing that. |

kudos:2 | Your right! I am a thief. I copy 1's and 0's! Big whoop. Who cares.
When I need something, I buy it, but I would not buy something that I have no control of.
Would you buy a car that you could only drive from 9-5 and still have to buy the gas for it?

said by DaMaGeINC:Your right! I am a thief. I copy 1's and 0's! Big whoop. Who cares. By your logic you could walk into a bank and steal all of the money there. After all it's just paper and not anything of value.

There are lots of things we buy that are subject to terms and conditions and sometimes limited use. I'm not pissed off I can't use my snow blower in summer or my lawn mower in winter. |

said by DaMaGeINC:Your right! I am a thief. I copy 1's and 0's! Big whoop. Who cares. It's ashame that people think like you.. Um, there is more than just 1's and 0's there bub.. there are, to be honest, lots of 1's followed by a lot of 0's and many other numbers that go in that equation preceded by a dollar sign that goes into producing those worthless 1's and 0's you steal...
Based on your analogy, those same 1's and 0's make up thinks like Microsoft's Windows program and apple's Leopard O/S too... those same "big woops" as you call them make up everything digital.. so in your way of thinking, anything that's digital should be free so long as you want to take it...
Ummm... in case you haven't noticed, just about EVERYTHING is going to those little 1's and 0's that are just "big whoop" to you..
I seriously am having a hard time comprehending your way of thinking,.. and why? ... because it's INCREDIBLY insane...
Would you buy a car that you could only drive from 9-5 and still have to buy the gas for it?
And, would I buy a car that I could only drive from 9-5? ... well, it depends on the price, the terms, and if I felt it was a value to me or not...
... from simple minds come... (never mind)
News flash - you DON'T have control over everything you "buy".... something things you're not buying to keep.. read your terms... YOU don't always get to set them... and in this case, the case of pay subscription television, subscription being the key term, YOU DON'T OWN IT! You're paying for the right to use it so long as you are a subscriber.
If all of this is seriously your way of thinking, well, someone failed you somewhere... be it your parents, the school system, or someone else..
When I need something, I buy it, but I would not buy something that I have no control of. |

kudos:2 | Ifs its something like the Windows OS, I buy that. I need it and use it. Its worth the money I spent on it. But this is not about Windows, Its about cable tv(insert any other here) and the monoply they have on a dieing business.

| OTA is an option, but it isnt viable for everyone. I tried with an indoor antenna and I was only able to get 1 OTA channes (PBS)... but I am glad that most OTA programming is freely available online!!! So I just get basic cable (I get more channels than advertised via QAM) and watch everything else on the Internet. |
