said by St0ney: So what if i wouldnt watch the commercials on TV in the First place? Whenever i watch seinfeld on TV and commercial comes in , i always switch to another program.
There is no difference in me downloading a free television episode on the internet and watching a free episode on TV.
Well, I agree....
I think the Seinfeld thing is a pretty poor example considering the show is in syndication now and not in the current prime time lineup.
However, again -- this all comes down to the commercials. If you were to actually watch the commercials like you're supposed to (according to them ) -- when you download, you don't see them...and thus their advertisers are less likely to buy air if their ads aren't being seen.
I imagine they also don't like you having copies of the episodes cause you are of course a pirate if you download them and therefore will sell them to the highest bidder, you terrorist!!! Oh, and again to the ads...if you have them on your PC then you don't need to watch TV.
Just shows you that they can't come up with a sound argument ... ever.
