2-bit fly by night companies , i dont know of any reputable companies with exclusive content that do.. who are these mysterious companies.. ? There might be 1 or 2 , but of thehundred of examples i just checked myself , not one was by a program owner, the vast majority was ripped from paysites or webmasters content with the logo's removed , and the person posting it was usually affiliated/promoting a newsreader program like guba along with it.. ( i.e. they rip the content , then sell access to it using guba as a front to protect against the obvious conclusion that they are ripping and posting the content themselves to promote their product. )
