  • Ethically you can make as many digital or physical personal copies as you want for yourself outside of perhaps a concern for wasting resources but if you sell them you’re taking away earnings from an author or rights holder or owner which may each have different moral weight and require recognition of property rights as a thing worth having. But if you’re caught with hundreds or thousands of copies or copies where they are easily accessible to the public it’s going to appear pretty suspicious.






  • I could take or leave jump scares if they aren’t the whole thing, I just don’t have great night vision so when a director thinks dark=scary I just end up watching a black screen with sfx and music, at least one of the home movies in Sinister and some of the later scenes was that I couldn’t see any detail at all just a flat black screen. It was really disappointing after so much great tension building in the first half.



  • And some song lyrics from the first music number:

    The last man nearly ruined this place,

    He didn’t know what to do with it

    If you think this country’s bad enough now,

    Just wait till I get through with it. /

    The country’s taxes must be fixed,

    And I know what to do with it.

    If you think you’re paying too much now,

    Just wait till I get through with it. /

    I will not stand for anything

    That’s crooked or unfair.

    I’m strictly on the up and up,

    So everyone beware. /

    If anyone’s caught taking graft

    And I don’t get my share,

    We stand ‘em up against the wall…

    And pop goes the weasel!









  • Those both require subscriptions for access though instead of offering an ad based tier so that already excludes a majority of viewers from being able to move over from yt and those producers are unlikely to abandon their current audiences for a possibly bigger audience under a different corporation. I think that’s going to be necessary for a majority of viewers and producers to switch to another A/V distribution platform. If Netflix or MTV had an ad-only based tier and released apps for phones, Roku, browser, etc and allowed producer uploads then I suspect they could take a big chunk of Google’s yt viewership and profits.
