Except that you would have to then kill the non-believers. It would be more merciful than being subjected to more of your conversion therapy.

Or yours.

I'm no zealot like you: "No streaming anything ever!" "No digitally distributed videogames!" "Never patch anything!" Blah blah blah.

I don't care, beyond idle curiosity, what you or anyone believes.

I'm just an argumentative & stubborn ol' jackass. If you converted to my way of thinking, my fun would end.

Depending on the ins and outs (snicker) of how you do this.... then YES

That's where you're wrong. We're both argumentative stubborn jackasses.

And here I figured you for a caring person, a defender of the faith even, someone on a mission.

If I didn't enjoy arguing then this whole thing would be pointless.

Believe me; it WAS pointless. Ask anyone.

If it brings me enjoyment then it's not pointless.

This thread, this community, is bigger than us.

I doubt that past 1,928 pages of discussion have actually accomplished anything. But plenty of us keep coming back. The only possible explanation is that we're all argumentative stubborn jackasses.

You definitely enjoy arguing, I can confirm that!

By that logic anyone who rents or borrows a disc would not have a license to access the content on the disc and would therefore be committing a crime by watching it.

For the mystery fans amongst us, I just watched The Dry with Eric Bana and really liked it. Very well executed from a writing, acting, and cinematography standpoint. Nothing to show off a system with, but I am happy as hell I blind bought it.

Thank you for not talking about piracy.

Today I picked up Rise of Gru and Days of Thunder.

I've gone back to watching discs directly. I also can't stop buying them so I need to take over another wall for shelves.

Looking forward to Crawl too.

Nonsense.

Renting conveys a license, too.

Lending a disc to family and friends is covered by the purchaser's or the renter's license. Public exhibition is about the only thing that you can't do when it comes to playing a disc. Back-ups are for personal use.

Stop trying to revive an argument that goes nowhere before we both get banned. Anthony will revive it this weekend, anyway, as that's the only time that he has to post here. How about we give everyone a rest from our BS at least until then?

Be quiet until your parole comes through.
