Like some, I was also considering buying a DVD player, but that plan is now on hold indefinitely. I also watch very little TV in the first place (I prefer to hack my linux system and code perl for entertainment), so the movies are now gone. Video rentals will now go to Zero.
Someone said it won't be effective because it just won't cause that much of a dent in the Media Giants' fender. I think its more than just the money, its the awareness that a boycott raises. Someone said T-Shirts -> Cool Idea! (Someone tell me where to get one, I missed that . ..)
Its about time that people realized there is more to life than the media anyway. Learn stuff, go enjoy nature, play a sport, whatever. Entertainment is more than just watching your overpaid idol crush the bad guys one more time.
