They do, you need a cable subscription and HBO Go.
- Touche 13y agoYou need to buy a package of stuff that you don't want and then pay extra for HBO. That is not reasonable.
- res0nat0r 13y agoSure, but that doesn't entitle you to just take it since you don't agree to their terms. Just like I can't demand to drive a Ferrari because paying $200k for a car is out of my price range.
- Touche 13y agoI'm entitled to have a sequence of bits on my computer, and to play that sequence of bits in an application capable of doing so. Since I'm a good person I'm willing to give money to the person/company that came up with the sequence of bits but I don't feel obligated to do so if they make the terms wildly out of my favor, that is I'm forced to also purchase other sequences of bits that I have no interest in. As for your Ferrari example, some day it will be trivially easy to 3D print a Ferrari and we'll be going through the same thing with physical items as we are going through with IP today.
- res0nat0r 13y agoNo one is "forcing" you to buy "sequence of bits" of the latest Game of Thrones episode.
- saturdayplace 13y agoThis mindset baffles me. You're entitled to Game of Thrones, and are justified in pirating it because you don't agree with the terms under which it's made available?
