              maybe also to make the cable users think they are getting huge amounts of content that dialup couldnt handle so they will signup ?

                          Maybe all the movies are large.. like 150-200 MB. Is any dialup user with his cock in his hand going to wait the 5 hrs for 1 movie to finish downloading?

                          Makes sense to me if you don't want chargebacks, and arent out to fleece your customers.

                            i guess that makes sense since it seems the site is dvd based....

                              Not sure if they are updating the site anymore. But the content they have online is amazing. Bubblegirls rule!

                                  The wording looks fine to me, they're just warning people using bandwidth challenged connections that they may not be able to experience the full potential of the site.

                                  I'd be more worried about the fact that their entire free sample area seems to consist of 6 blind linked thumbs.

                                    of dissatisfied dial up members who
                                    can't get the value of their high quality video
                                    which is too demanding of the dial up connection
                                    True enough.

                                    It helps to tell people your site is or is not set up with dial up in mind. Saves chargeback, and angry e-mails. If you have enormous video heavy site of 50 MB clips, dial up users will not want to take 1/2 a day to wait for them.

                                    Should You Email Your Members?

                                      how many people really have dialup now days anyways? they are giving themselves a rap at the same time as possibly reducing chargebacks..

                                      Talking themselves up... another sell point..
