When you physically steal something you take possesion of it and exclude the other person from enjoying that good, when you stream somethin it doesn't affect the enjoyment of others at all
Bean flicker must have some shares in HBO and showtime

Rolles Royce could start giving away their cars, that would be good promotion and publicity, but is it really conducive to profitability and having a strong business model?

The "stealing" part was moreso meant for the owners of the streaming sites, who are using someone else's intellectual property to profit from illegally.
I'm not saying it's a "crazy evil", I understand the differences between piracy and actual theft. I've watched streams just like anyone else. I'm just saying that no good comes from illegally streaming a PPV. It does absolutely no benefit for the sport.

I guess my biggest flaw is not being an idiot.

What about Rolles Royce let us even see the the car before we test drive it and before decide to buy it.
Re: Boxingguru shut down by city of london police
I remember when 'streaming' a live fight was calling a far off friend who had cable and having them set the phone on speaker and turn the volume way up ;D

Bean just wants y'all to stop being cheap bastards and pay for the muthfukkin fights. If you got money to eat. You got money to pay for the fights
Re: Boxingguru shut down by city of london police
I think people should pay to watch fights and given the choice I would, but I live in a country where live boxing isn't shown. I imagine many people use streams for similar reasons. It certainly isn't because of image quality and a kinky thing for choppy streams.
It's a shame that the City of London trolls need to go after small things and yet turn a blind eye to massive white collar crime on their doorstep in one of the most corrupt places in the world today. The British stay up until 4am to watch a fight on a choppy stream. Is that what these trolls need to be concentrating on?
Lame. And yet you can watch any of their other sports elsewhere just as easily. It's a battle they cannot win, so I don't know why there are bothering. 'Ooh let's make an example of him'. The only thing worse than criminals are the police themselves who are in scandal after scandal.
They should be closed down. At least Guru was only showing fights.
Re: Boxingguru shut down by city of london police
Something else will pop up... it always pops up.... always...
