This is really OT, but then, not really...

I know this is OT but I just had to share it.

Don't DL This Song

15 second commercial first, sorry

Will Al ever tour again?

or you could, you know, get it from his myspace page without the ad: http://www.myspace.com/weirdal

The tour got delayed because of the bullshit with "You're Pitiful" so it won't start until next year some time it seems.

If song downloaders are going to jail.... where are we, the video downloaders, going? 0_o

The fact that we're all listening to that song via the internet, nay downloading it is stupidly ironic.

I laughed so hard when I heard that song the first time...

"Don't download this song, or you'll burn in hell before too long..."

What about the fact that most high speed internet companies advertise how you'll be able to DL video and music at faster speeds. A few have advertised nationaly on TV with those claims and only a few have in tiny print about how you shouldn't download illegally.

Hey this would be a great song for a bunch of editors to work on. Anyone intersted?

This is a technicality of sorts, because to view legal streaming video and music you still have to techincally download information to your computer to watch them online. So you're downloading the information to stream those videos and songs, even if you don't have the files themselves on your hard drive. If you asked an attorney for one of those companies, that's probably the justification they'd give.

Because we *all* get faster Internet connections to watch streaming videos online.

Horray for satire that goes over everyone's head even when it's so painfully obvious by the lyrics and the video.
