NBC Universal has lost their mind

They want to yank their TV shows from iTunes due to pricing concerns and "to curb piracy." Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Yank your content out of the one place where you do have DRM that people can't currently beat. That way people can go to BitTorrent and steal your shows instead.

Brilliant!

Media companies just hopelessly don't get it.

Speaking of TV on iTunes, I'm hoping "Californication" ends up on there as a Season Pass. It's tempting me to look up a torrent (since I don't have cable), but I completely loathe that idea.
