3. Oink.cd. 3 minutes later, album.
Now I never torrent music.
1. Grab phone. Type 3 letters of band name. Preview to see if more than 2 songs worth getting. Buy album. Listen without ever turning on computer.
You made it easy, so now I use it.
I would happily just watch everything off of Netflix if it was on there. I'd also pay more than $10 for it.
Make a way so I can pay per NHL game? Yes please. See you Shaw. Take your HD Treehouse and whatever other crap you make me pay for and shove it.

Now with services like Rdio and Netflix, not to mention Shaw VOD or itunes, there isn't really a reason to pirate. In the old days if you wanted to rent a DVD and blockbuster was all out, you had no other options not to mention having to drag your ass out in the cold. It was just easier to use a newsgroup. Now, legal means have made it so easy.
