Kimber James: FREE PORN!

[loveboof]

That argument doesn't stand up whatsoever. It is exactly the same, the same processes of manufacture and investment have went into that commodity and X amount need to sell, to recoup that investment.

If that's the basis of your argument for piracy, then it's failed. Yes there are many gray areas as in your example of somebody watching a stolen TV at a friends house but the simple fact is, if it's been taken from the owner, without their consent it's stolen and anybody viewing this on tubes or filelockers IS aware of this.

The breach of intellectual copyright is not the same as the theft of a physical object.

Whatever the resulting impact on profit and sales, you cannot approach the two with the same mindset. I don't believe that those kids downloading music are guilty of anything - it is not fair to hold them accountable. It is the same with the people watching porn on tube sites; they are not the ones responsible.

The fact they could be potential customers is irrelevant.

Would getting rid of download option help with "theft"

No more download option.
Have built in webplayer (youtube, basically thats the VOD thing, right?)
reduce price per month 15.00

VOD can be captured. How about the software netflix uses like silverlight? im not sure if people are able to rip the video off that soft ware?

I thought they drafted a proposal but hadn't decided on what to do yet. Weren't the performers(producers,etc) there to try to convince them it would cause work loss, decreased profits and ultimately a mass exodus from the state. I would think It would be a while before they sent their final draft to the state for approval anyway right? Porn is a huge part of California I can't imagine they would want to clear the entire Valley and lose the heart of the industry to Vegas or Canada(or somewhere).

No doll according to Cal Osha we were supposed to be using condoms since 93 or 94 and we haven't been.

I go onto the password forums to get free access to Adult pay sites I visit

The days of pay sites are numbered

Look at how many record shops are closing, such as HMV in the UK

If paysites were priced more reasonably, we could all join and pay the fee

I think that at $30 a pop, they are far too expensive.

Yes I mean look at how dropping CD and DVD prices have helped HMV... that is a great example Look how the masses flocked now more affordable.. ahem.

30 dollars is what £18. That is really to much to spare once every 6 or 12 months to download all content on a site..? really ?!

That is what 5 pints in town on a weekend nowadays?

Or do you mean you want yo be a constant member at a lower fee - if so whats in your mind acceptable? Just curious. Ta x

Why are they too expensive?
How much do you think we shoudl pay a model?
How much should server charges be reduced?
How about what I pay a webmaster/photoshopper/editor/cleaner/driver/...
Fuck off.

.

Explain?
It's EXACTLY the same. Both have invested manufacturing costs?
Spin it anyway you want, suck off you own cock if it makes you content but downloading of content, YOU did not pay for and the owner did not make available is theft.
