Where i live, and many surrounding cities, about 99% of us can't make that choice, and this is where this
discussion always goes.
We can't just point out a small part of the problem and run with it, this bad, little or no structure gives way to nothing but bias...
have we forgotton that we buy this shit by the cargo ship?
meh, mod me foolish but it seems improper that these
articles and news stories are the only push we have against said practices.

There's even a London in Canada which has a River Thames running through it!
I live in Connecticut, US, we have a New London County, and the Thames right behind it.
We're so original *ducks*

i tier them by importance, so if i ever come into any shit, i know what accounts will need to be checked.
I'll also add that i lock my doors and windows, and own a gun, but because i don't have top notch Ub3r l33t h4xoring
skills or a LOIC, i use the best passwords i'm able.

This is the clear theme of the universe by default.
There are predators and prey, like an asteroid aiming at an unsuspecting innocent planet...
i'm not saying i think it is right or wrong, but be smart: know what is going on around you, read things before you sign them, it should be common sense.
OTOH, The poor are the people having a problem with your suggestion; i make decent money, where i live, for what i do, and i would have to save
for decades to purchase a house outright. Then i'm dead broke. This is why the subscription model is gaining the ground it is.
I'm with you though, from what i see the days of "hand over gold nuggets, receive goods" worked the best, and that was when a months balance sheet
didn't include a statement 9 pages long front to back.
Just my 2 cents.

If I have to upgrade to Windows 8 (which I don't plan on doing), then I'll just wait until there's a suitable version of the Combined Community Codec Pack for Win8. Really, paying for media playback is just lame.
lame! haha!
