However I was referring specificially to this new movie that the publisher said "I'm giving you my blanket permission to not only download it, but also to email it, burn it, and share it with anyone and everyone."Michael P Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890121680113642715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-22825255571274776672008-09-24T06:04:00.000+10:002008-09-24T06:04:00.000+10:002008-09-24T06:04:00.000+10:00@Michael P Moore said:<BR/>"I might wait a week or two until someone dumps it up on Pirate Bay."<BR/><BR/>Mate, with 10 years plus of Corporate and Government IT experience doing everything from Level 1 help desk to statewide network administration I don't get much wrong in this line.<BR/><BR/>The way our illustrious (and I use the term very loosely and sarcastically) State and Federal Governments work, your quoted passage above is enough to show intent that you are considering downloading it.<BR/><BR/>The fact that you know of Pirate Bay (you even provided a link to it as well) and it would be safe to assume that you know what type of material that you can peruse or download there; I would argue that it's like saying "men buy Playboy for the articles" :)<BR/><BR/>I mean, you said yourself (and I quote again):<BR/><BR/>"I might wait a week or two until someone dumps it up on Pirate Bay."<BR/><BR/>What are you 'waiting a week or two' for if you aren't going to download it? You've already admitted that you now (and quote again): "Beyond the US shores, we can by a DVD version for around 21 Aussie bucks, delivered."<BR/><BR/>Again, I'm not stirring the pot, just trying to help.Andrewwww.agt.id.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-36911414981070031302008-09-23T22:18:00.000+10:002008-09-23T22:18:00.000+10:002008-09-23T22:18:00.000+10:00Andrew, I didn't.
