I decided to move this conversation so that the respecialized thread doesn't get locked due to offtopic-ness, not to mention potential confusing of a newbie.

How do i get Adywans theatrical cut of Episode 1?

It's available on Usenet. (only on Usenet, I think)

What the hell thread am I reading?

How do I get it from Usenet?

*faceplam*

Danfun128 said:

The question is, wouldn't you rather get it for free from "that paradoxal place" then spend $20 dollars for a monthly subscription of usenet?

Why isn't there any one time payment unlimited usenet access? Is that too much to ask?

timdiggerm said:

Given that costs cover server maintenance, yes.

Nope! usenetserver.com has $5 unlimited 3-day subscriptions with 20 simultaneous connections and SSL. Enjoy.

by unlimited I didn't neccesarily mean data. I meant pay once, never again. As in *not* a subscription model. As in permanent access.

Oh, I see.

Couldnt it be done with the 97 laserdisc sound mix?

No, a usenet company would never accept that as payment.

Frink, honestly, if you don't know what you're talking about then shut the fuck up! More and more places online are accepting laserdisc soundmixes as a form of payment.

pets.com doesn't count.

My landlord came to my door about an hour ago looking for the back rent.

Still thinking about this thread, I tried to hand him laserdiscs of the AC-3 audio versions of "Apocalypse Now" and "Thunderball", but he just looked at me with a blank stare.

I wonder if Amazon will accept Laserdisc audio as payment? I am completely broke right now but would love to preoroder the new Bluray set of The Avengers. If Amazon gets on board and starts accepting laserdisc audio at long last I will be set.

I will capitulate to your request forthwith, sirrah. However, I feel it is my Christian duty to first render unto you a fine salute for the forceful passion you have presented in your bold message before me.

Those pictures were of me convincing Fink's mom to continue accepting laserdisc audio as payment.

Not off-topic at all . . .

.......you just made the situation 10 times worse. Then again, the off-topic section usually isn't moderated.

Laserdisc audio is, shall we say, an inherently uncomfortable topic.

Particularly when payments between different species are involved.

He just wanted to know where he can pay with Laserdisc audio. Leave him alone.
