No. I don't want examples of people pirating TV shows. I asked you =
for the top five examples of your earlier claim, living room devices = that
succeeded because geeks adopted them and everyone else followed = asking geeks
for how to do it.

You want examples of people going the route I've gone? Get on emule =
and search on any of the current high def TV shows, those are not tivo = or
viiv or media center users.

So you have no examples. Why not just say so?

Yesterday one of the guys at work came to me with a copy protected =
christmas music CD and asked me why he couldn't get it to play in his =
computer. When I told him it's because of the copy protection his exact = words
were "bastards, it says nothing about copy protection on the = package".
I then asked him if he looked for that when he purchased it and he =
said he avoids anything with "that damn shit on it" including hardware.
This is not the same public that bought DVD players a few years =
ago, they are online geeks now. They talk to each other.

Do you have good examples of this? The stuff I see that is =
successful in the living room succeeds because it is simple not because = it is
something geeks led with or even prefer. Those you call geeks = tend to like
switches and knobs and plenty of options. Look at the = folks here like you
going on and on about which formats they prefer, = which encoder application
they like, which bit rates, etc. The = non-technical folks I know don't care
about any of that crap. How about = you give us your top five examples to the
contrary.

They must think all the people looking to do this are newbies =
or something..
It's the geeks that get there first and then everyone asks =
them how to do it
