Yesterday i went to the supermarket. a middle aged woman at the entrance wanted to give a newspaper away to me. I said no thanks. She asked me if i read the paper. I said i read it on the web. She tried to pitch a Sunday only edition to me. No dice.
It does scare me how the value of content is starting to approach zero. Nobody pays for something they can "easily" get for free. This is why i entertain the idea of a flash or VOD style pay area. Make it as hard as possible to get my content for free.
But the issues with customer service, connection speed, & web availability put me overwelmingly on the side of downloads. The torrents are gonna rip your shit either way. Why make customers mad to prevent something you can't prevent?
