They would sell you the DVD and then make you pay a monthly fee.
No-one could imagine such an evil business plan back in the 90s.
“Hell, half the time I’m actively rooting against him” is what did it for me.
There’s a “getting to first base” joke in there somewhere.

I dunno though, I just listen to the music.
Wow, I really like this story. I’m not sure why I like this one and not “The Great Awake”; if I had to answer, I’d say it’s “voice”, but that’s a cop-out. I guess it’s relatable but just outlandish enough to be safe.

But what is missing is a more generalized infrastructure for detecting content ownership and providing compensation in a general purpose way. This is one of the great business opportunities of the next few years, awaiting the kind of breakthrough that pay-per-click search advertising brought to the World Wide Web.
