i don't know if you spent any time working in a store but the whole fun of doing it is to behave as abrasively as possible to every customer, so that they remember you and leave you alone next time.
Working in a store would be great if it wasn't for the fucking customers
may sound odd? I first played doom when i was nine, which means that my brother was playing it when he was seven, and my youngest brother was exposed to it when he was five (he didn't take much interest though). A couple of my friends also played it at the same age.
The person who introduced me to the game? My dad, neither of my parents (or my friends parents) ever had objections to us playing. The number of us trying to act out scenes from doom is nil, of course this may be something to do with our total lack of access to guns. [/throwawaystatement]
Though now i think about it my brother has just joined the army hmmmmmm.
british taxpayers don't pay for the bbc, british television owners do. BBC America carries adverts which pay for the broadcast their. IIRC its part of the BBC mandate (or some other official documentation, check the bbc america site) that things the BBC publishes abroad should not be paid for by the british license payer.
Well as most of the dvd market will be Britain itself (iirc there are lots of stuff never released on region one, that is where and dent will be made.
Acording to Oftel (industry regulators) Only 67% of the people in Britain are able to recieve asdl.
Cable isn't really used that much and is not available to lots of the population.
According to NTL & Telewest (practically the only two cable companies) there are around one million suscribers
research shows that there are only around 1.6million users in britain.
So out of a net population of roughly 30 million (50 of the UKs population) only 2.6 million people have broadband.
This means that the most British people that can be expected to use the bbcs content service stands at roughly 2.5 million. Hardly a big dent in sales.
Of course this could change with increased broadband adoption, the level of new people connecting to the internet has practically flatlined though, suggesting that around half the population aren't bothered.
Most of the people buying dvds are buying them for the extras, chances are they've already bought them on vhs or taped them from the telly.
some guy proposed doing something similar on an atol in the pacific ocean (iirc) I can't remember what it was called now. ts probably on here somewhere.
I'd assume anyone could claim it.

putting up unfinished work is dumb at the best of times, its more stupid when your advertising it heavily
i actually had a go of the eye toy on tuesday, a dixons nearby has one set up to demonstrate it. After around 10 minutes it was pretty boring. Much longer and my hands would've ached. Probably.
Definetly one for the kids

if you configure a p2p client to ignore binary files you wouldn't get any results would you? Or am i missing something?

do you really think that the BBC are dumb enough to release stuff they don't have rights to?

umm, yeah that didn't make sense. I meant it wasn't the MPAAs best idea to advertise unfinished work. (although now i think about it, it probably is)
