I think that it is pretty stupid to link the videos here, and it really sucks about the companies losing money this way..

However I still think if the video is pretty old, or it is hard to find in stores because of the outpouring of new movies, that adding it to Google and or posting a link for others to swee isn't a bad idea..

however, this isn't the case, it's brand new DVDs being posted straight from the DVD they just got.

BUT, banning people for posting something that nobody's really gonna go out and buy anymore is a bit harsh IMO. Anything older than like 6 months and it's out of date, really. A whole load of new shit'll be released and those who didn't buy it, probably won't.

But yeah whatever, rule's are rules.

If some kid gets banned from a forum for a two weeks, nothing negative happens to him. Hell, he might even read a book or stop worrying about the Ti content of his frame.

But if some kid posts a link to where you can download the latest shook video for free, a few dozen kids might end up not buying the video. The Chad Shackleford might not cover his rent cheque for that month.

Which outcome is worse, really?

Not to mention the fact that if scenario number 2 does occur, Doug could very well end up with his ass sued, and that's two people getting fucked over in life because of one link.

Thank you.

Some of these kids think the guys making videos are "livin the life" making these videos. There isn't much money in bmx kids. Posting one link could easily cost hard working folks hundreds if not more, dollars.

I think this is justified but anyone who calls another person cheap for not buying videos and watching them online needs to shut up. Some of us have more important things to pay for than bmx videos.

I definitely agree with not letting people post copyrighted videos, just about every other forum I know of doesn't allow it either. It's called CYA (cover your ass), people.

That said, I have downloaded copyrighted stuff before, but in the case of bike videos I usually either stop watching halfway through, or watch it a couple times and then buy the video if I liked it. I still need to buy Can I Eat, and I'll buy the Fit video when it's out (no, I'm not going to upload it)

Everyone has more important things to buy than bike videos. Not having enough money doesn't mean you should steal, it means you shouldn't get to watch. That's right, it's a product. If you don't have enough money for a car is it ok to steal it?

If you don't have enough money, it's your own fault. If you want material possesions learn to make money like a responsible person instead of bitching.

I could contradict you on so many counts but it's really not worth it.
