Roger that. www.Limewire.com has all the epps. Except for the DVD commentaries. So you still must buy the DVDs to get the good stuff, and to watch it on a real TV with friends and family, sitting on a couch, instead of hunched over with a computer in your face. There's no competition.
So free downloads don't affect sales of DVDs, except to stimulate sales. Filesharing is just video on demand, which is already available "free" from cable TV providers. Bookstores and libraries let customers read the books in the store, without fear of losing sales.
Filesharing let's Firefly compete on the open market, uncensored by Fox TV and Universal/SciFi TV. SciFi prefers wrestling to Firefly reruns! Fox TV won't touch it at all.
Fox TV and 20th Century Fox are both owned by Rupert Murdock. As is The Sun (aka The Sin), Rupert's daily porno rag. No wonder the Firefly stars were required to strip.

Screw em. Filesharing will just replace Fox and SciFi, if that's what the execs want. It actually turns your computer into a broadcast studio. That's your right to Free Speech as protected by the First Amendment to the US Constitution.
Filesharing is 100% legal, since it's legal to make VCR or TIVO copies for yourself, friends and family, for non-profit purposes. The Media Mafia is operated by pathological liars who are incapable of telling the truth about anything, so it's a fatal mistake to get any sort of legal advice from a pack of liars. If filesharing were illegal, then the cable ISP monopolies would be guilty, especially since they make a massive profit from filesharing already.
Filesharing is a nightmare of video codec incompatability and slow connections. My cable modem is 3mb/sec, but downloads are rarely faster than 20kb/sec, and usually 3kb/sec. Burning to video CD or DVD is an extreme nightmare. Anyone paid more than $1/hour income would save money by buying the DVD set. Computer manufacturers are liars to claim that DVD burners are worth a shit. There are dozens of types of DVDs, with less than 50% compatability if you're lucky. You need a very expensive computer just to be able to process any sort of video files. Hollywood DVDs are stamped, not burned, in a totally different process that ensures 100% compatibility, not counting international regions, which are thus incompatible.
The worst part of filesharing is adware. Not even the antivirus programs nor Microsoft are worth a darn against adware. There are smaller free downloads that are the only thing that works against some of those bugs. STOPSIGN is evil incarnate, taking over your computer CPU with adware, then trying to sell you the anitvirus cure for its own disease. But I never saw it on FF downloads.
FF books, of course, are not impacted by filsharing. Unless somebody wants to scan each page and make a PDF ebook...
I suspect all the hype against filesharing is reverse psychology, just to advertise it for free. Firefly filesharing is just guerilla marketing for Fox and Universal. And they're in the narco money-laundering business, so don't feel sorry for their Media Mafia. They can turn a massive profit without selling a single DVD or movie ticket.
