I think they're trying to stop massive bandwidth drain by peeps direct-downloading the movie... Or something like that. I can understand that, as some of my largest hits these days are from image theft by bloggers using commercial blog-ware/blog-sites. * livejournal was the most egregious offender, if you care. You'd think the blog-site owners would force them to upload their own images, instead of stealing my bandwidth but I guess not. :-( I wouldn't mind at all it if they provided a link back or even just named our music venue in the text somewhere, and the bandwidth is no big deal any more, but it irks me. I must not care that much, cuz I haven't hacked the images to be... something interesting... when they are being "stolen"... Yet. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
