Thanks for yet another great show. I also use such services and would never know of some of the greatest movies I have seen if not for some of these sites and many others. For instance, the movie Symbol 2009, which is predominantly in Korean, although some Spanish and English too! Someone painstakingly added English subs to the copy I watched. It is one hell of an indie movie, a true work of art in my mind. I would have never found it otherwise. Nor could I afford it. When I find such a movie I tell people who can afford it and i write a review when so inclined, thus I hope I am helping the people who worked to put out such a work of art rather than some movie tailored to the "industry" and force fed to us with a $4.00 coke. There are many who believe that internet sharing of such files is really just good advertising for those who will always be legal beagles.

I use software that blocks many sites from being able to see what I am downloading and tells me who is trying. The amount of companies watching us is unimaginable. Frankly its scary.

I went to TVshack to watch an old show and was met with this banner. So much for the internet belonging to the people.

re: last comment about tvshack.net. Look at the three seals on the site. The FBI is the agency that would be relevant here...and that ICE "special agent" badge looks bogus! (What does ICE have to do with copyright?...nothing!) More like tvshack.net was HACKED.
