They were all produced by the same studio and I do not recall what studio it was but his ISP told him that if they received another notification his service would be terminated. He stopped.
I used to buy storage units at auctions and sell the stuff that was inside them. Many units had VCR tapes and DVDs and CDs in them. One unit had three boxes full of nothing but pirated DVDs. There was probably 500 movies there. When I first opened the box and saw DVD cases I was happy. Then I started going through them and realized what they were and ended up tossing them all in the trash. I wonder if I bought his unit.
