Yeah. Unfortunately he's not good at hiding his tracks. Feel free to voice your opinions to him personally.

I've banned him from the site, and the forum. Not that he ever posted here... what a dillweed.
Wow, he's selling every episode of MST3K ever for $60.

Wow . . . selling them? When there's already a torrent to download them. What a dickweed. Just for your information, I do use torrents, but only for downloading TV shows that I can't watch now that cable's been cut off. And I used it to catch up on the KTMA episodes since that seems to be a little faster than using eDonkey.

It has come to my attention that there is some new use of the word "Porno" of which I am unaware. Could someone enlighten me? :^)

I believe the forum is automagically converting the name of a certain type of peer-to-peer file transfer mechanism that is popular with content pirates.

sooner rather than later, the movie studios are going to put the hammer down.  these people are stealing not only rifftrax intellectual and creative properties, but the film as well.

That's pretty inventive. I'd modify my last post, but it's just too funny not to leave as is.

It's one thing to steal it, but to steal something and spread copies to everyone pretending like you are Johnny Appleseed is the worst part.

Amusing, considering one could download a torrent of porno.

Why would one do such a nasty thing?

What, use a Porno or watch porno?

I love how the filter capitalizes it.


bettertomorrowamy

Using a porno to get a porno?  Isn't that exploitation?

I have to admit that I download illegal music all the time and I don't really have a moral issue with it.  I paid for "Rhapsody" but it wasn't really worth it because I couldn't use my iPod and I would really only play 5-6 songs a week(and then they continued to charge me and their tech support basically called me a liar and said I was stealing their service...but I won't go into that.  I guess that was karma).  Anyway, I don't know why, really, that's any different to me than downloading rifftrax but I would never think to download a rifftrax.

I guess when you get right down to it, on a moral level it's the same thing - stealing.  Is rifftrax different because I know the staff, because rifftrax is small, because I have more respect for Mike Nelson than for Snoop Dogg?  Who knows. I bet some others of you download illegal music too though.

But anyway, as someone who freely admits to stealing music I can tell you, I'd never buy a CD with half the stuff I download.  I may try to convince myself, "If I saw this on CD..."  No, it's probably on iTunes.  It doesn't help the person advertise.  Every now and then I'll stumble onto a good band and actually buy their CD but that doesn't happen a lot.  I think people who download a) don't care enough to buy the product b) are too broke to buy the product or c) think it's cool to beat the system.  All the other stuff is just vindicating their piracy.

At least I admit it's illegal and I think the RIAA is going to come knocking and then it'll be all over the news that I went to jail for "Whip It" and "She Blinded Me With Science."  That'd be embarrassing...worse yet, I think I illegally downloaded some Spice Girl songs.

I don't really have a point, just to say I'm guilty of piracy myself.
