Demolocke's Caveat

Caveat: Please make note that this article/post is my personal analysis of the subject and the information used was chosen or picked by me. It is not an analysis piece because it lacks complete and comprehensive research, it was not adequately and completely investigated and it is not balanced, i.e., it is my personal view without the views of others including subject experts, etc. Look at this as “Infotainment rather then expert research.” This is an opinion/editorial article/post meant to persuade the reader to think, decide and accept or reject my premise. It is an attempt to cause change or reinforce attitudes, beliefs and values as they apply in life. It is merely a commentary on the subject in the particular article presented.


This article is mine and mine alone. I the author of this article assure you, the reader, that any of the opinions expressed here are my own and are a result of the way in which my meandering mind interprets a particular situation and/or concept. The views expressed here are solely those of the author in his private capacity and do not in any way represent the views of other professionals or authors of source materials. It should be quite obvious that the sources I used herein have not approved, endorsed, embraced, friended, liked, tweeted or authorized this article. (Everything I think and write is true, within the limits of my knowledge and understanding. Oh, and just because I wrote it and just because it sounds reasonable and just because it makes sense, does not mean it is true.)


Finally, it is incumbent that the reader take any information they feel is relevant and useful and perform an in-depth analysis of it to work out its value to the reader. It is also stressed that the reader also present the information to qualified professionals/experts so that his or her expertise and experience can also analyze the information to validate and then synthesize said information into their ideas, theories or facts/information either as is or as synthesized into something new and creative.


Oh, it is pronounced "Dem-Locke."

Rental Time Limits

Demolocke’s Agenda Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)

Ever wonder the purpose of imposing a twenty-four hour time limit on renting movies - streaming - found on Internet movie sites like Amazon Prime and Apple TV?

When I consider that it is simply a stored data stream on the cloud and the exorbitant fee to watch it I just can't get why a time limit.

What is lost or gained by insisting that once a customer starts to watch the movie they MUST finish it in twenty-fours?

After all, it is not like a DVD, a solid piece of plastic, to be shared so s longer time influences someone else's right to rent and watch the same title, right?

Is it about data because we pay the cable connection for the data as well as the band width, right?
