labor? putting the dvd in the burner and clicking on "copy"?
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, no -- they worked. They only got what was torrented, after all. Really hard to grab that stuff off the tricksy interwebs and burn it. Real hard.
Good thing he's not a postal inspector.

I'm not convinced that they did. Otherwise, wouldn't it be all 8 episodes? I think these might be broadcast copies that they "taped."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

entrapment? but then, I would argue that by creating the site, the vendor made the first move.

Yeah, I don't think purchasing an illegal item constitutes entrapment.
That disclaimer is hilarious, though.

and frankly, is a nail in this person's prosecution. that disclaimer clearly shows that they were aware that they weren't supposed to be doing this.

I didn't even think of that! Where do people get this legalese-sounding bullshit?
