    Hey Berman and Acacia ...

    this isn't going to be quite your usual "fuck you" post ... but i thought i'd take a moment out of your busy schedule of high priced lunches/dinners, sending out mass mailings and "spinning" your "encouraging infringement" line and share with you a little story ...

    i was talking to a friend of mine today who worked for a content producer and provider ( not Matrix, so y`all can turn the flame throwers off ... ) about a couple content CD's i was looking to buy. you notice i used the past tense of the verb "work". seems between a week ago thursday when i had talked to him and now, he was told last friday: "don't come in monday. business is slow and i don't have the money to pay ya". this guy doesn't have any adult related sites, or directly profit from the production of videos or photo content. but YOUR little lawsuit crusade seems to have a lot of people NOT in the purchasing mood. and it's costing a content producer revenues and in turn --somebody else their job.

    ( o.k. --now we slip back into "GFY mode" ... )

    i really hope you cocksmokers sleep real good tonight sound in the knowledge you fuckers are "winning". you just cost somebody their fucking job. hope y`all are "proud" of yourselves. maybe pound back a shot or something to toast your victory. "hell yeah baby !! we're winning !!". another notch in your little victory belt. well ... while your busy chowin' down on your expensive lunches and dinners --why don't you do me a favor and think about my friend who's now out of a job because of y`all's actions. and think about his new 5 month old. think about him while he's busy trying to hussle up another paying gig so he can feed his family. no streaming anything on any site. but you fuckers sure as shit shut him down didn't ya ...

      If they drive people out of business, they aren't winning.

      They only win if they get paid.

              Everybody take vids down for 6 mos to a year and then see where those guys are. They'd burn the reserves up filing in all the states with little to no income. lol And it doesn't look like they do withOUT so that 32mil would go quick.

                You young guys crack me up. You think Acacia is some kind of a legal fluke? Think that's all you have to worry about legally in the years ahead.

                Wait til you've been in business for yourself for 26 years. You'll have stacks of legal files in your file cabinets from suing people yourselves to getting sued by others.

                Lawsuits are a part of business. Get used to it. There's over 500,000 lawyers in the US alone and they file over 20 Million lawsuits each year.

                Find yourself a good lawyer that you get along with on a personal level as well as a professional level. I assure you, he'll end up being a friend you'll need and do business with your entire life.

                    KRL --wasn't meant to imply acacia had any corner on the lawsuit market. but since it's a "given" they're reading the boards i just figured i'd "share" with them what their actions cost somebody ...

                        Never thought about it but yeah it makes sense the Content Companies right now are in a certain bind as many webmasters are not expanding there content portfolio's out of fear of being fingered for a violation.
                        The idea of buying video content right now probly puts alot of content buyers on edge and are just waiting till there is some kind of openning.

                              They don't have to wait that long to look back.. they already did this kind of licensing garbage with V-chip fairly recently!

                              Racked up $27M before Sony knocked them out.

                              There is no soul or conscious with them.. it's just business and they believe in some insane-altered-reality thinking that they own the patent to downloading audio/video.

                              USA Video has similar claims to owning the patent to downloading video... it's a paradox that both can have similar claims.. like how can the future self be in the same room as the past self....

                                Sorry to hear about your friends loss and I hope it works out for him....

                                I think EB was right tho or at least im hoping she is by saying it will blow over in 45-60days..

                                Were all praying to have these cocksmokers annialated, but it will only mean that we have to deal when the next bunch of bottom feeders trying to extort us out of our hard earned $$

                                FTC is catching on I think also, that should be helpfull for the long term aswell

                                        KRL's right, lawsuits are a cost of any business. Trust me, no one is in contact with their lawyers more than people in the casino business. Unfortunately in this case no one seems to be fighting it, all the big guys are signing sweetheart deals so they don't have to deal with it, and letting the little guys take the hit.
