I've got multiple seasons of stuff on DVD already that I've not had the time to watch. I'm sure I'll be watching plenty of that.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I can buy BBC DVDs, right?

I'm a bit late on this, but...
I wonder how they select people here.
In Alaska, they used to pick the pool by a combination that included at least hunting and fishing licenses and drivers licenses and maybe voters registration. Now, however, they just use the Permanent Fund dividend (PFD) applicants. When I was in for jury duty once, the judge told us about how one person complained, saying that they lived in Oregon most of the year and shouldn't have to serve jury duty in Alaska. The judge immediately excused this person, and then forwarded his name to the PFD office for prosecution. Hee. I just loved that.
And, if this doesn't make sense because you don't know what the PFD is, you can find out more here: [link]

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

I support the idea of these boycotts, but not downloading things from iTunes or buying DVDs is just not practical for me, for various reasons.
You know, I would think downloading and watching stuff on the internet would be a good thing. AMPTP claims they don't make any money off the internet. If they made money during this strike on "new media" that would only bolster the writers' position.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Who says they have to report that money to the public? They'll just say it's savings from not paying people due to the strike.
I don't know that boycotting downloads will have much impact, but I'm disinclined to help the studios make money on new media during the strike.
