That's totally beside the point, we need our show to pop up everywhere and win everything, so gogo download already ;-)

#2, so far.

The FRACKING point is... What good to US is being able to download Firefly episodes? Its not like they are new episodes.. and everyone here except the ABSOLUTE newbies owns multiple box sets.

I am all for popularising Firefly but advertising the fact that we can download Firefly episodes on this site serves no real purpose other than enlightenment.

Lets preach to the choir..

How does this download stuff work? Is it some uber protected windows media crap in a low resolution?

(yeah i know, its not the point - but its my question)

That's what I was aimin' fer. I probably won't download any eps, but it's another shot in the arm for us. Can't stop the you-know-what, etc.

The fact that it's number two behind 24 is totally something. I mean, don't go out and spend all your money up, but it all the browncoats just buy like one a week, we can keep the name up there. People are watching, trust me. When it comes down to the wire, these numbers are going to be important. Because no matter how much we love the show, the F*X, Scifi, Universal, and whoever else, it still comes down to the bottom line.

I'm on the Tivo community board a thread was posted about the upcoming anaversery. A few people posted asking what firefly/serenity was.
So I posted a link to amazons download page, tell them the first download was free, suggest they start with serenity.

It seems as tho it might be a great recruitment tool

Hey, I'm downloading the pilot ASAP. Yes, I've got the boxed set. And no, for some reason I'm not seeing the "1st download is free!" thing (though hopefully I will once I remember my Amazon password that my laptop @#$% forgot), but I'm doing it anyway. At $2 a pop it's easy 'nuff to do.

The pilot is 1.2GB. It gets to live on my computer permanently. And the next time I'm yakking about Firefly and Serenity to someone who's never seen it before, I can slide my laptop across to them and say, "Hope you have some time. Enjoy. I'll be back with snacks."

Besides, my boxed set lives at home (where the OTHER Browncoats live!) This way I can always get my fix, even if I get stranded.

Rack up numbers for Firefly? You bet. Get my fix? You bet. Can't stop the signal? ... You have to ask?
