Okay, so I'm not saying go pirate stuff, don't ban my blog Google!
But seriously, when is TV going to move online?
It helps shows get discovered and make money long after they've died (by being rediscovered on ADVERTISING friendly mediums), it gives the consumers what they want, everyone wins.
The shift is coming. My fear is that it will take another decade, which would just be INSANE with all the demand out there, for example, right now, Ice Age 2 is being uploaded by OVER 100,000 people. That means something between 500,000 - 5,000,000 people are going to pirate that movie illegally, which means somewhere in the ballpark of $1,000,000 lost in potential advertising. And that's just torrenting.
Oh yeah... this shit IS coming down... I'm glad I just added that up ;-)
And to help speed it along, I'm going to start showing people who say they've bought ANY DvDs how to pirate online virus free, and I'll encourage them, talking about how they're helping the world. Because they are... if they want on demand, free entertainment sooner rather than later (it is not a matter of if, but when.)
So that's it. Not only will I continue to steal that which the studios are too stupid to make available to me, I'm actually going to encourage others to do the same and to show their friends, too. Seriously, I've had enough. Just look at hulu.com. You can watch full shows, whenever you want, and for that, they only ask you watch some advertising. No problem. I'd be happy to. Why not just do it for everything, already?
TV is running out of air.
