Name me a modern, made in 2005/06, show that's any good.

Intellectually and artistically speaking, of course.

NONE.

Let the corporate fascists have their way. Art is worth buying; subject to one's own tastes and soul. Manufactured images aren't. To anybody.

People need to stop watching the brainwashing box and start thinking more.

For that and many other reasons, the MPAA/RIAA/whatever-group are only hurting themselves in the end. The internet has been used by people to catch up on episodes they've missed. All things considered, there's no practical difference between the internet and Tivo...

Which brings me to a kewl point: Once the flag is instilled, any recording device becomes U-S-E-L-E-S-S. Anyone else still happy about spending their hard earned money? Thought you weren't.

TV is an artisitically dead medium and I can learn to live without my collection once mandatory HDTV makes my current players and sets obsolete. I, as with too many, need to get back to basics and make friend with people instead of living in the ivory tower, glued to the TV, wasting electricity, and developing misconceptions about people thanks to biased news repors.
