I think this is a case where they're going to learn you can't say something that nobody see's out in the open as "obscene".

What I mean is, in the days where obscenity laws were passed, VCR's and direct to home sales of porn didnt exist. The fact that the *ONLY* people who will be FORCED to view the material will be 12 Jurors is a useless way to try to prosecute based on obscenity.

If I go to their website and CHOOSE to purchase any video, have it shipped to my home and watch it with a big tub of popcorn, I obviously don't think it's obscene! I think it's something I wanted to watch.

"You" the people are entirely unaffected by my choice of viewing material. You have no say whether or not I should enjoy it or not. I'm not in your house forcing you to stop watching The Bachelorette because it erodes society, or burning your Harlequinn Romance novels because they offend me with their shallow drivel.

I think they're barking up the entirely wrong tree on this one, and I'm fine with that.
