| Wouldn't put it past them
I Think they are doing just this.. Why not? they need to protect them selves from the internet theives..*Apparently*. On the Other Hand. This is where I'm torn. Because if I'm already getting the same content on cable or satellite (non pay per view ) Then why shouldn't i be able to download it. Why should i be tied to my TV.. When i can Take 4-5 episodes of a Tv show pop it on the hard drive for my flight and be content.
My Fair-Use Rights say i can video tape the content. So I'm adapting the new technology to that right. Why don't they understand this.. I know why.. Because they FEAR that they are going to loose money on advertising.. There entire business model is Horridly flawed.. They apparently make no monies other than advertising ( or so I'm reading) I'll admit i haven't research that in depth. But that Alone is a joke.. -- Who do you want to pay off today? |
