This is a sad truth.  As a freelancer, I fight with this mentality every day of my life. 

Didn’t you JUST post about getting stuff on a torrent site?

I’m confused.

True, I did.  About getting a TV show off that site.  I do buy movies on DVD, artwork that I use, pay for animal art, books in electronic format and music from artists I love.  I pay for a subscription to Netflix and to a service that shows anime. So if I could have seen the Doctor Who special in any of those, I would have.  It’s not trying to get around paying for the entertainment, and when it finally shows here in the states on broadcast TV (can’t get cable/satellite in my complex for some reason) I will watch it and the advertisements.

Reposting so people can see the poster’s clarification.

I am not judging the poster, I just saw a post about using torrent sites right next to one about paying for art and was confused.

I totally believe the poster’s clarification, for the record.
