I realize there are people out there into the whole burning MP3s to CD thing. But there are some of us who are truly trying before we buy. I will listen to a whole CD on my computer and decide if I want it before I purchase it. I will rent a console game before I decide to buy it. I'll download a PC game as well.

The bitch about copyright laws for media is that the second you open the seal on them, you cannot return them other than a damage exchange. This means that if I am truly dissatisfied and angry about spending $40 for something I had no legal means of testing first, I'm out $40. It's an insult to the concept of consumerism.
But when you rent a movie, you pay for it, and the moviemaker is a little bit richer.


Torture is the gradual elimination of emotions.
