Not that you need more proof, but … [ here it is anyway ] .
The RIAA spends far more money tracking down our grannies, and our homeless to sue them for money they don’t have then they are “losing” due to piracy.
Bear in mind that I do NOT condone piracy, and in fact I find it offensive to take what you did not pay for. That being said, the RIAA, and the MPAA need to spend more time finding ways to make the online music craze work for them, rather then trying to work against a monster that is bigger then all of us…
I don’t join the [ ever growing mass of Cally haters ]. While I think her character was always a little weak, and that she wasn’t really a major part of the series, she represented something that I thought was missing with a lot of the BSG crew. For one, she was loyal to Chief Tyrol - physically, emotionally, even spiritually. A lot of the other characters on the show bounce from one connection to another. Baltar and Starbuck being the extreme examples of that. Cally always stuck with Chief, from the very first episode when it was made clear that she had a thing for him. Back then, he was with Boomer. I think, personally, that when Cally “Jack Rubied” her that it was largely in part because of the Boomer’s betrayal of someone she cared deeply for, Chief. I don’t think it had anything to do with Adama, or even the fact that Boomer was a cylon. It was simply a reaction to Chief being hurt by her.
I also think, that she always represented the fresh start that the humans where reaching for. She was the first “known character” to produce a child, that we were supposed to think wasn’t a Hylon (human/cylon).
Lastly, I like Nicki Clyne. She is very cute, and an excellent actress, and I for one will miss her on the show.
So color this geek… sad.
