New favourite term of address.


--- Quote ---what was the DVD? Well, for the record, it was "a gift from an employee who had recorded a TV show about fire extinguishers". It did not survive the ordeal

Guys, this wasn't an accident. The T.V. networks have mandated a "shoot to kill" policy for copyright piracy! Hide all your burned discs! Delete all your downloaded files! Run for your life! RUN!!

RedLion:
I can understand people not buying physical music much anymore, but what's the rationale for downloading DVDs online? There's not that much of a distinguishable difference between digitally downloaded music and that on CD, but the quality of a DVD--and particularly now, a Blu-Ray Disc--and what you can download online is glaring. There are some movies where it seems like the lowered visuals would destroy any point to watching the movie in the first place...

Also, gunshot stopped by DVD?  What the hell was he shot with, a .22?

Even a .22 ought to go through that, maybe it was a .25. You know, the one that ends on the wrong side of the line that determines whether something is better or worse than harsh language.

If you download a pirated version from the theater, sure.

If you download a DVD rip, it's pretty much identical.

RedLion:
Ah, gotcha. My feeble mind failed to even consider that.
