Seriously? Who's pirating gay pr0n? Especially on the intarwebs where most things can be found for free legally. As a side note, how does one copyright gay butt sex?
I'm with Sal on this, I actually have had Comcast for internet for the last four years and have had only minor issues. Even though their level 1 support personnel are recruited from the "special" school, they have been responsive to me for support issues.
As far as speed goes, I get between 20-25Mb down and between 3-4Mb up from them consistently (with the option to upgrade to a 30Mb or 50Mb line). How long ago did you have service from them?
I have an '07 Passat with about 70k miles and it's running great so far. Only minor issue I have is that it eats oil more than most engines do. Having a turbo I'd expect that though, especially with the way I drive.
I do agree doing regular standard maintenance is ridiculously hard. I brought it in to have break pads and tires put on and decided to have the air filter replaced too. Mechanic said everything went fine except that the air filter took the longest to do, LOL. VW may not be there yet for quality/reliability, but mark my words. Give them about 4-5 years and they'll be the car to beat.

I think he was getting at (correct me if I'm wrong) the fact that the mentality of I created this "art" and am therefore entitled to revenues from it for the rest of my life is part of the problem and needs to change. In the real world no one gets paid for work they performed 50 years ago. I go to work everyday and get paid for that day's contributions to the company. I don't go to work for one day and get paid for that day for the next month. Make sense?

who needs technical skills to take their computer to a random friends house for it to reside for a while? And to either have or borrow a basic laptop that no one cares about? Sorry Mr Judge, this is the only computer I have and I did not use it to infringe the plaintiff's copyright. Must have been someone driving by and using my wifi which I don't have the technical skills to lock down. My bad... easy peasy.
Apparently no one has informed the Pakastan courts that there is these new inventions called "encryption" and "proxy servers". As a side note, when the hell did we let a third rate country such as this have the internets? This is just proof they're not ready yet people! Get with the program!
