Paul T. Farinelli: Apparently it was a joke on JT's part. He acts as though we all should've realized that, but it's not to big of a stretch

Shadow Darkman Anti-Thesis of : JT is such a tool. He thinks he can have his way just because he's a Christian. Listen up, Jackie-boy, I'm a Christian, too.

If there were legal alternatives, I'd use them. There aren't any. And that's the industry's own fault. I'm not talking about music, because that's an area that's serviced rather well with commercial download services.
What I download are television shows. If I could, I'd use iTunes more often, but that's only available in the US. So the only way to watch TV shows properly is the internet. Otherwise I need to wait years for them air here, if they're aired at all. Some of my favorite shows aren't and will never be shown overseas. That's combined with completely random schedules and lots of cancellations. Even if they air, they're dubbed, which is so bad that it makes my ears bleed.
I don't watch the shows on local stations, so no one actually loses any money. I still buy the DVDs of some shows when they come later. In fact I bought some shows that I would never have noticed if it weren't for downloading.
That's doesn't justify all downloads though. Movies and games are released almost at the same time, and it's easy to get a copy in the original language. Similar with music. But television is really a harmless area.
