I would concede this point if you can (and I'm trying but can't come up with one yet) tell me a blockbuster movie made within the last 3 years that has never been released onto cable television.



Actually, no, it doesn't and in fact strengthens my argument. I tape shows on one day and then watch them the following days using TIVO - a perfectly legal and another service I pay for. The show's that I taped the previous day aren't on the following day but I can still watch it. No one yells "thief" under those circumstances and there isn't a soul among you that sit through the commercials on a taped show but you won't see me yelling "you're depriving the studio's of advertising revenue" at anyone.




I never said they did (though if you check out the movie section of just about any hotel you'll see a "still in theaters" section...




Sure it does and I'll point you back to the Tivo comment above. I'm able to Tivo it and watch it any time I like for as long as I like - free of charge.


So lets assume for a minute that you were brought up on charges and we are standing in front of a judge or a jury. You really think they are going to buy this theory of yours
I can't presume to speak for anyone but I do believe that I have a strong argument but even if they didn't, I would ask that they in turn prove to me monetary damages.[/QUOTE]

I bet your a hoot on a date. "hey watch me put a hair in my food and we can get it for free". I despise people like you. You are the reason that everything goes up in price and why I have to take 5 million twisties off of my kids toys when I buy them. Scumbags like you need to go on your special island and steal off of each other all you want. You deserve each other.

So let's take this to a base level since that's all you seem to understand.

Movie comes out in the theatre. Not a single person goes to see it or buys a dvd because they all downloaded it. None of them wanted to pay for the right to see it on a big screen and didn't want to pay for the dvd.

Just how many movies would be made?

You are a pathetic thief plan and simple.
