We have an entitlement generation who all feel it's their right to determine the value of a product after they've declared the value as $0. That's why the Humble Indie Bundle- which was offered on a pay-what-you-can scale- was still stolen in mass percentages by torrenters. If Snickers wants to give free samples or coupons for a new product, that's their prerogative it doesn't mean I'm morally justified in shoplifting a candy bar and coming back later to pay for it because I thought it was delicious. In contrast, my "favorite" comments are the ones that were variations of "I just downloaded this torrent. Providing services and commodities is, on the grand scale of civilization, a huge fucking favor. He's offering a product a lot of us want at a highly affordable price that would otherwise be unavailable if he hadn't taken the time to create it. You're running a business, don't act like you're doing us a favor. I can't stop you from torrenting all I can do is politely ask you to pay your five little dollars, enjoy the video, and let other people find it in the same way.
So, please help me keep this being a good idea. I would like to be able to post more material to the fans in this way, which makes it cheaper for the buyer and more pleasant for me. I paid for the production and posting of this video with my own money. Please bear in mind that I am not a company or a corporation. I was told that it would be easier to torrent the way I made it, but I chose to do it this way anyway, because I want it to be easy for people to watch and enjoy this video in any way they want without "corporate" restrictions.
But I'd just like you to consider this: I made this video extremely easy to use against well-informed advice. I don't know enough about it to judge either way. To those who might wish to "torrent" this video: look, I don't really get the whole "torrent" thing.
