Why I Steal Movies (Even Ones I'm In)

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the no-not-me-him dept.

Jamie found a link saying "Like a billion other people, I download things illegally. I'm also an actor, writer, and director whose income depends on revenue from DVDs, movies, and books.This leads to many conflicts in my head, in my heart, and in bars."

    Its not the previews that bother me.

    Its that 'you wouldnt steal a car' advert which cant be skipped.

    I would if it meant i wouldn't have to see that stupid advert.

    ..."I live in London and many of my favo(u)rite TV shows are American. So if I want to see the latest episode of South Park or Friday Night Lights..." I threw a flag right then. If you spend your time downloading and watching Texas' version of Days of Our Lives I have no more time for you. Personal Foul. Good bye now.

    I'd be very much inclined to believe that the author of the article would agree with you. He's been in the IT Crowd a few times, which was the source of this.
