TV-Links Fiasco

So, heard about this guy in the UK that ran this little website called TV-Links? And then how he got raided and thrown in jail? BULL SHIT!

So here's what I have to say about this issue:

1-Why not go after Stage6 and all the web pages actually hosting the pirated video instead of the guy who merely gathers a list of links to these sites?

2-Maybe the networks and channels should stop and take a look around at why a site like TV-Links is so popular. Could it be perhaps that it's filling in a need/want of the customer that is not currently being met? I for one can tell you that TV-Links was my last resort. My preference is catching shows live on TV, if I can't do that I'd rather watch it taped, if I mess up on that I'd rather watch it through the network's website for the superior quality, but if the site has glitches or the site doesn't offer it than I would go to TV-Links!!! Networks and channels need to step back and realize if they don't want sites like TV-Links around they need to be doing something different. They need to be giving us what we want or we'll go get it somewhere else. And there will always be someone willing to step in and give it to us. All ready I found a blog with a link to 38 other websites, where between them all you can get what you want, and here's the link: Teddy's Place!

Fuck you British government.
