You're wrong. See GPLv3, section 6. "By request" only applies when object code is distributed via physical media or in a physical product. If it's downloadable, you must also provide downloadable source, no request needed.
Actually, you're supposed to make it available if you're distributing downloadable copies, no request necessary. The "by request" is if you distribute physically (in a device, or on physical media). See Section 6, Conveying Non-Source Forms, of GPLv3.
Well, it depends on the application. Assuming the chart is accurate, disks are more reliable for the first year. So, if you have a short term application/need, or replace your hardware every year, then disks are more reliable.
"you realize that this doesn't help your case at all, right?"
And exactly what do you assume my "case" to be? I've simply pointed out a fact, and not put forth any claim about what it may or may not prove.
"Svante Arrhenius proved that more CO2 in the atmosphere means a higher mean surface temperature. "
Bullshit. He proved no such thing. Scientific proof involves more than having a hypothesis, and he certainly didn't single handedly increase the global CO2 level to test his. Really, if you want to argue science, at least try and understand what the scientific method requires.
Even when looking at graphs that "any child" should be able to interpret, you've got it backwards. If you look critically, you'll find that CO2 increases trail temperature increases.
People don't know that radio waves travel invisibly thought space? They expect that information they send via radio waves will only go to devices they control? They're stupid.
I've been subscribing for a year. Rango was in my mailbox on the DVD release date (last Friday). I'm pretty sure they send them "first come, first served," I added it to my queue before it was in theatrical release.
I don't accept that you're an average Netflix viewer. As I said, with greater and better choice, it can be expected that, on average, Netflix viewers will stream more content, which costs more. Conversely, with more revenue, Netflix can negotiate better/more choice of streaming content.
If it doesn't work for you, just stop your subscription. Problem solved. I don't have a problem paying the cost of a single DVD for a month of their DVD and streaming service. As the summary asked, where is there a better deal?
You can go to Walmart and buy a discounted copy of a hot new release (Rango) for $16. Or you can pay Netflix $16, and easily watch 4+ new releases, plus any number of streams in a month. Exactly how is Netflix "ripping you off?"
If they get a better selection of streaming movies, presumably they will get watched more often. IOW, if you stream X per month now, with a limited selection, you're likely to stream X+Y per month with a better selection. So, if the price went up 60%, just watch 60% more streams, and you're even based on your desired "per view" pricing model.
"Library of Congress" in this context is a unit of information, not an actual library. It's the unit which is made plural, not the library and not the Congress.
My cable company wants much more than $16/mo to get the various premium channels (HBO, Showtime, etc.). $16/mo is a good deal to be able to watch what you want, when you want.
"Superpower" doesn't have to mean military power. In 1870, the UK was the indisputable superpower, and had a GDP of ~$100 billion 1990 International Dollars. The US had a GDP of ~$98 billion. By 1913, the US GDP had grown over 5x, to ~$517 billion, while the UK was at $224 billion and the second largest economy in the world.
You want to try again to explain how the US didn't become a superpower until after WW2 (and further, to answer the GP, how the US wasn't already a superpower in 1971, the year it went off the gold standard)?
"If not, then it's not breaking GPL."
Yes, it is. See GPLv3, section 6. If you make the object downloadable, the source must be, too - no request necessary.

Oh, it's by design. They're simply Keynesians.
shocked, I tell you, that people would spend money that's not their own so freely.

Now explain why it's cyclical, and we're not like Venus.

"maybe I'm special"
Yes, you are. You're unique, just like everyone else.
You have to be 35 years old to be president. Lady Gaga has 10 years to go before she can be eligible.
Right. Rango is an exception.
I've got "The Adjustment Bureau" coming to me tomorrow. It was released yesterday.
I've been subscribing for a year. Rango was in my mailbox on the DVD release date (last Friday). I'm pretty sure they send them "first come, first served," I added it to my queue before it was in theatrical release.
You don't read very well.

"that's not what you get with Netflix streaming. You get to watch what the studios approve of, for as long as they think you should be allowed to. "
And that differs from how movies are released to premium cable channels and network TV in exactly what way?
If they get a better selection of streaming movies, presumably they will get watched more often. IOW, if you stream X per month now, with a limited selection, you're likely to stream X+Y per month with a better selection.

Whoosh.
"Libraries of Congress"
There's only one.

how many Library of Congresses is that?
