It's like when Sam Odio wrecked Jonathan's Card, there is always going to be that one jackass.

Thankfully though people can still feel good about paying for this after somebody does that.

Buying the special allows you only two downloads, even if the download doesn't complete. My first try, the Wi-Fi dropped; luckily, the second worked. While waiting, I was bemused thinking that I would have a legitimate reason to torrent if it didn't go through. (Actually, I would have just bought it again, as an excuse to give the man more money. Like his bit with the veteran on the plane, I got a hit of feeling good about myself without actually having to follow through. :P)

Fair enough, though I wasn't at all upset at the idea of seeding the video 'cause honestly digital distribution should be free, just the note he put with the seed felt selfish and in the context of the article did not include a link.

I understand as an alternate to downloading and getting what you paid for sure, you can seed it. But don't put it up there with a note that says the video should be free.

The torrent includes a link to the "BUY THIS VIDEO" page. I paid for the video and didn't download it from his website.

I would be interested in knowing what the bandwidth costs for Louis C.K. are since the video was around 1GB. The number of torrenters was 10,000. That's 10TB of bandwidth which I imagine costs quite a bit...so those torrenters were saving him a bit of cash.
