		<description>Ja, das ist meine echte email-adresse! Heute Nacht hatte ich das “Vergnügen” mit einem echten Jünger der mainstream-Presse zu kommunizieren. Das Problem, ich kenne diesen Menschen schon mein halbes Leben… Heute NAcht, wurde mir bewußt, dass Menschen, die für sich selbst denken können, in dieser Gesellschaft unerwünscht sind! Das hier ist kein Gelaber von jemanden der zu viel Zeit hat - nein, das hier ist eine Anfrage an Leute, die die Fähigkeit haben, jemanden zu folgen, der diese Gesellschaft in die Knie zwingen wird. Ich will hier keine grauen Mäuse hören - ich will Menschen, die bereit sind dieses Land, durchwachsen von Korruption, brennen zu sehen. Dieser Text ist kein Scherz, kein Spaß - dies ist die letzte Möglichkeit Freiheit zu erkämpfen! Danke.

Yes, that is my real email-address! Tonight, i had the &quot;fortune&quot; to meet a real believer of the mainstream-press. The problem, i knew this men half my life... Tonight, i realized, that people, who think for themselfes, are no longer accepted in this society. This is no chatter of someone with to much time on his hands - no, this is an outcry to people, who have the ability, to follow a movement, that will bring down this system to it&#039;s knees. I don&#039;t want to hear them grey mice complaining - i wan&#039;t people, who whant this land, rotten with corruption, to burn. This text is no joke, no scam - this is the last opportunity to fight for freedom! Thanks.

I am sorry for my bad english - please, correct that text and copy it. Thank you!

		<description>big tim commercial ladden shows would simply be downloaded and have the commercials cut out

the advertising must be as unintrusive as currently available 

something like this http://bit.ly/info/YA7ag
with only 4 out the 26 commercial spot going to the actual show producers under a traditional tv deal, it would not be hard to generate pro rated equivalent compensation using this tecnique.

Especially when you take into account that there are 60 version of every episode available for download.  And that number grows with each resolution/audio quality change.</description>

		<description>For those who haven&#039;t seen it, this really isn&#039;t a spoiler.

The hacks in hollywood have just destroyed the whole battlestar galactica franchise by devolving the whole cylon uprising to a teenager&#039;s rebellion. Are you mental? Which retard suggested this as a story line, let alone who approved it?
Glen A. Larson must be furious with this childish piece of work. I certainly am. Frackin joke.</description>

		<description>Why BitTorrent is the future of TV

Every innovation has opposition when it is first developed.  Everyone that is a consumer of television has the same desire:  &quot;watch what you want, when you want&quot;.  The reality is that while the networks are acquiescing to this reality (you can watch some episodes on the &#039;net) they are not really endorsing it.  This is more like a pity-screw than anyone really devoting time and effort to developing a solid solution to a hungry public.

Along comes file-sharing.  Utilities, games and music were the early fodder for this.  The huge impact, music, and thus the &#039;evil empire&#039; moves its gaze to the innovation.  It was attempted to be squashed but, like all innovative and revolutionary ideas, was unable to fully be defeated.  Now that the medium has moved to movies and television the effort of the evil giant is still to stomp out this revolutionary way of enjoying commercial entertainment.

Ah, there&#039;s the word... commercial.  Yes, that is why all the fuss.  Money.

Why oppose the inevitable?  Why make every computer owner in the world a criminal?  Why mark yourself for hate, derision, and the target of public scorn... which will inevitably turn into political scorn as the abuses are made open and monetary damages forced to be paid?  Why indeed; when the alternative is much more lucrative and satisfying.

Why fight them when you can integrate with them and drive how they work?

What are the key complaints regarding file sharing?
Lack of commercial revenue?
Lack of usage tracking?

Well, for the 2nd item that doesn&#039;t really exist in TV now; not really.

So, I propose the following:

Instead of fighting file share spend the money to setup one&#039;s own seeding service.  Take all the shows that would normally be ripped and shared and put high quality, commercial laden, shows on the &#039;net, fully seeded and supported.  This way you get a one to one download tracking for both ratings review and advertiser charges.  You also forego having to have giant file storage since you&#039;re using peer-to-peer sharing.

Oh, but to make this happen you have to get the ISPs to stop blocking file-sharing...

But, here we go.  It&#039;s a win-win.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why BitTorrent is the future of TV</p>
<p>Every innovation has opposition when it is first developed.  Everyone that is a consumer of television has the same desire:  &#8220;watch what you want, when you want&#8221;.  The reality is that while the networks are acquiescing to this reality (you can watch some episodes on the &#8216;net) they are not really endorsing it.  This is more like a pity-screw than anyone really devoting time and effort to developing a solid solution to a hungry public.</p>
<p>Along comes file-sharing.  Utilities, games and music were the early fodder for this.  The huge impact, music, and thus the &#8216;evil empire&#8217; moves its gaze to the innovation.  It was attempted to be squashed but, like all innovative and revolutionary ideas, was unable to fully be defeated.  Now that the medium has moved to movies and television the effort of the evil giant is still to stomp out this revolutionary way of enjoying commercial entertainment.</p>
<p>Ah, there&#8217;s the word&#8230; commercial.  Yes, that is why all the fuss.  Money.</p>
<p>Why oppose the inevitable?  Why make every computer owner in the world a criminal?  Why mark yourself for hate, derision, and the target of public scorn&#8230; which will inevitably turn into political scorn as the abuses are made open and monetary damages forced to be paid?  Why indeed; when the alternative is much more lucrative and satisfying.</p>
<p>Why fight them when you can integrate with them and drive how they work?</p>
<p>What are the key complaints regarding file sharing?<br />
Lack of commercial revenue?<br />
Lack of usage tracking?</p>
<p>Well, for the 2nd item that doesn&#8217;t really exist in TV now; not really.</p>
<p>So, I propose the following:</p>
<p>Instead of fighting file share spend the money to setup one&#8217;s own seeding service.  Take all the shows that would normally be ripped and shared and put high quality, commercial laden, shows on the &#8216;net, fully seeded and supported.  This way you get a one to one download tracking for both ratings review and advertiser charges.  You also forego having to have giant file storage since you&#8217;re using peer-to-peer sharing.</p>
<p>Oh, but to make this happen you have to get the ISPs to stop blocking file-sharing&#8230;</p>
<p>But, here we go.  It&#8217;s a win-win.</p>
