And before you get hopping on that one mof, let me add this -- Vivid, Wicked, the BUSINESSES -- which *I* would have included you guys in, since I really like Farrell, even tho I barely know you -- who are run like businesses on both the internet and the video side, they are NOT what I am talking about.

Well in that case...
KK let's compare apples to apples. When Hooper inquired about DVD dist. I assumed he, being an intelligent individual, was looking for a reputable company. Not a suitcase pimp.
I agree with you- there are bad apples in the vid biz, but there are also bad apples in the internet side.
When "internet people" don't clarify who they are referring to when they say "video guys" I take offense. I don't want to be categorized with the suitcase pimps nor do I want people getting the impression that the vid biz is entirely comprised of suitcase pimps.
You want to compare "our best against their best"? That is ludicrous. You want to compare Video biz pioneers that went to jail for our first amendment rights? Compare Steve Hirsch of Vivid and his business acumen? Big deal you list a few internet companies that are still basking in the go-go days of the mid-late 90s. What happens when a new Meese commission comes along? They'll all be offshore fighting for themselves- oh wait they already are.
I don't even know why I bothered with your post. Talking about no toilet paper and doing coke as compared to the class of RJB. What? Mayebe if you spent a little less time riding the "video side's" jock (while kissing the internet side's ass) you would see there are opportunities for you.
You are a savvy, highly capable individual. I would figure someone like you could actually do quite well rescuing one of these wayward video companies by taking over their web operations. They have mountains of content that one day they will figure out how to capitalize on. Until then I will sleep soundly knowing that they aren't doing so .
Hooper, if you still have the patience to be reading this thread, I would suggest you might talk to my DVD manufacturer. He might be interested in drop shipping your orders.
