Unfortunately though as the article above suggests they are starting to crack down on it.
While this is true, the same can be said for torrents. Most stuff is still fine, it may just take a little longer if a download fails. I have checks in place that ensure downloads that will fail don't start.

Does anyone actually watch the shows that are on TV, or are they all downloaded? I've been reading about Girls, supposed to be on Showcase but can't see it there, don't even know if it's started yet on TV here?
Also waiting patiently for The Following. And Arrow. I'm not going to watch TV on my computer though.

Have just started watching The Newsroom, like it so far (only 3 epidsodes in)

Thanks anyway, Mum's birthday this Sunday so won't be at the footy. I'm happy to wait, I think it's starting soon anyway? Looks like a beefed up version of Revenge, with a much more appealing lead character. :wink:

I had a quick look online but couldn't find it. If all else fails, you can download it from iTunes, or 'elsewhere'. Or get the DVD of season 1 from my shop. :mrgreen:

Anyway, see it by any means necessary. It's great!

Has anyone been watching (the other) Josh Thomas's ABC series Please Like Me? It's quite enjoyable. He reminds me so much of a female friend in terms of mannerisms and vocal patterns and even a little in terms of looks. It's weird.
