Agree, both with the moral thing (dude, it's a commercial product, not a church) and the strategy analysis.

I used the micro-focus thing last night to find a brit crime drama I'd never seen before. Sure, it is not Kurasawa, but it works for me after a long day.

Was it The Fall? The first season of that show (only 5 hour long eps) is on Netflix now, and it's pretty good. Also, it stars Special Agent Dana Scully (aka Gillian Anderson), so I fell in love with it immediately.

The Fall is really enjoyable. Sick and twisted… but enjoyable.

No, wasn't that. Now i can't even find it, though the episode is 1/2 through on my Roku at home. It's called New Tricks - on hulu, actually. Hmmm, differentiation issue much?
