Comment Stuck at home with nothing to do.... (Score 1) 550

Seems that everyone is going after pirates when a situation like this comes up. It is true that most people that are renting & returning the same day could be making copies of the DVDs, that sure would be a large DVD collection. However, couple of things to think about. What if I am a very ill person that is stuck at home with no where to go, what if I am handicap & can not go anywhere & TV is my way of entertainment, what if I am a criminal that can not walk to the video store because I am on a house arrest. Each one of this time (& there is MANY people like that in USA) will turn me into a "pirate"? because I am renting and watching the movie as soon as it gets to my home and then send it back the next day? I do not find that fair on Netflix part, to make me suffer because they automatically assume that everyone that is renting & returning movies the same day is a "pirate". What about this, what if I was to come into Blockbusters Video or Hollywood Video & rent a movie every day, return it next day, would they tell me "Sorry sir, you need to wait couple of days My two cents. Personally I do hope someone decides to take care of this matter with a small claims court. I know I would sign up for it, since I have been a netflix user since 2001 I have noticed this "throttling" for last almost a year. It is time to try out Blockbusters Online Rental.
