DVD-Disc Going Out of Business Sale

I'll tell you one thing. I'm not buying Anime DVDs anymore. I'm using the Pirate Bay and Funimation.com, DirecTV DVR Streamer, YouTube, and Roku to watch things. It's cheaper, and I can eat until my belly is full! DVDs are becoming a relic, either fortunately or unfortunately. Expensive DVDs are going out of fashion and plummeting out of public favor. The DVD anime market is doomed. Or so it would seem. Not my fault. Just because DVDs are less efficient than my invention, streaming video, doesn't mean streaming is bad or wrong. Video killed the radio star. Streaming video killed your DVD sales.

Let me spell out the raw data:

You know how many videos I watched through streaming and piracy sites like Pirate Bay in the last 2 months???

1,000s! 1,000s of video streams! For just 1 person.

Wanna know how many anime DVDs I bought in the same amount of time?

2. 

2 DVDs. Air Master and Dead Leaves, and it's mostly so I can hear the English Dubs tracks.

That's PATHETIC, Anime Industry. Wake up and smell the dying market. Time to get on the Streaming Bandwagon. Oh wait, you sorta have to. I don't think you really have a choice at this point...

DVD is going to end up like VHS, and Streaming Video will end up like TV replacing radio, except Streaming Video, due to its' simultaneous low cost and utilitarian nature, could very well replace both TV AND DVD in time, assuming the market continues to grow, which it's kind of obvious it will. TV and anime companies are complaining about illegal streams because Streaming stands to make a ton of money in advertising revenues/sales through sites like YouTube, Funimation.com, Roku, DirecTV, Netflix, Amazon Crunchyroll, ANN, and a bunch of interchangeable tech and hardware formats online and off (but mostly on), and this prosperity for Streaming video translates to an equivalent exchange of loss for both traditional TV and DVD, which will probably be replaced by such things as Ustream and Cartoon Network Video Live Broadcasting, YouTube, DirecTV, and Netflix HDMI and TV broadcasting. Streaming sites will continue to multiply and proliferate online and in compatibility to TV. What does all this mean, preferential treatments, which results in lost DVD Sales, and lost advertisings revenues. Billions of dollars lost by traditional sources in favor of Next Generation Streaming Technology. CN and Adult Swim set a good example of how to adapt to this changes. I'm gonna go watch their live stream broadcast of Squidbillies or whatever of on Adult Swim.com just to show my support of corporations taking the initiative to adapt. If they can adapt to my technology, I'll adapt to their business plan. Win/Win. Profit-Profit, on both sides. Not just one. It's only fair.

Well, I've still got my Amazon Author Store. And my App Developer Company StreamWave Developer Media. And my media company, Thunder-Lightning Media. And my Online TV Network ActionToonTV. 

The Jo Ann Saga: JM Goes to Childhood Therapy

Jo Ann: A Profile:

Jo Ann was an unusual person. She's a child psychologist who lives and works primarily in Winter Park, Central Florida. She was my childhood therapist, and naturally as a result is one of the only people who is aware of all of my secret and private stories and life experiences from childhood, adolescence, and some of my adulthood, as I had an hour long interview with her once a week from early childhood to early adulthood. She was an NT/NF Rational temperament and was compassionate, to a point. And as bossy and as manipulative as she could be at times, there were benefits to confiding in her at the time. She never judged my worst traits or actions the way Hollywood or Japan did in their films and TV shows. She was a bit less cold and distant than that, and her goal was never to hurt or humiliate people the way your TV tries to. However, she did attribute the bullying of my neighbors I constantly tried to tell her about (I told her at least 40 or 50 times my neighbors were verbally harassing and bullying me from across my own fence, and each time she shrugged it off and attributed it to "My own self hatred, delusions of grandeur, and schizophrenic auditory hallucinations". She had my whole family lying to ourselves about the bullies in my neighborhood on Queen Elaine Drive and Guenavere in Casselberry, Florida. Something the police would later come to investigate with surveillance technology and hidden cameras later on, upon me reporting my neighbors continual offensive activities, and acts of bullying and harassment, to them numerous times. To say nothing of the ceaseless cyber stalking, harassment and bullying also attributed to Adult Swim, Brian Johnston, the media, and my local newer neighbor-bullies, who as it turns out smoke a lot of marijuana, do a lot of drugs and alcohol and "come after me every time they fail at life". But after years of denying I was cyberbullied by Brian Johnston and the pre-Facebook, pre-MySpace social media (Adult Swim, DeviantART, others), Jo Ann was finally cyberbullied herself by one of her own patients who was angry at Jo Ann telling her what to do as well, so suddenly now she believes in cyberbullying now that SHE'S the one getting targeted, yet she never believed in it when I said it to her 50,000 times. How ironic. 

Rest In Peace, Nick

My condolences to the family of Nick, who passed away unexpectedly and tragically at the age of 24, a few days ago.

Oh yes! Finally!

My Dream Came True today.

PIRATE IT!!! A User's Guide to the Pirate Bay...

http://www.thepiratebay.com

First, go to The Pirate Bay

Step 1: Simply type in the name of the movie, TV show, cartoon, software, or music album or song you would like to own a series or copy of.

Step 2: See what titles come up.

Step 3: Click on the tiny magnet symbol next to the title

Step 4: Open a sub-browser in a separate window.

Step 5: Download and keep BitTorrent Software on your computer.

Step 6: Click the term "Get this torrent" to download your free torrent

Step 7: Calibrate your BitTorrent dashboard

Step 8: Click the button(s) in your bit torrent download manager that send the torrent to your computer. Select a file destination for the torrent file. When okaying the download, be sure to decline all the adward, spyware, and viruses that look legit, but really want to KILL and SPY ON YOUR Hard drive and make it impossible to use.

Step 9: Finish downloading your torrent through BitTorrent, once the time bar completes

Step 10: Once you access the folder containing the downloaded torrent files on your computer, use a batch media converter (I prefer Wondershare) to convert all songs to mp3 files, and all video files to WMV files, which is compatible with most Windows formats. Bottom line: You must convert your files to the right format that matches up with your CPU before you can read, watch or listen to the torrents you download. Most torrents don't play in their initially uploaded formats. This is done to save the uploaders uploading time, and the downloaders downloading time, not to help with playback or definition of video.

Step 11: Enjoy you're sharing! Happy "Pirating"!

I Miss The Goths of the 90s

Whatever happened to them? Whatever happened to Spooky Gothic Culture.

It's been a decade since I've ever spoken directly to a Gothic person. I miss them.

Do they still exist? I miss Halloween, and Thrash Metal, and Goth Comics, and boots.
