He isn't, but here's the deal; $5 for a DRM copy of Louis C.K.'s stand up. Buy it to support an amazing comedian, a really awesome dude, and because it's DRM free. Plus, it's five-fucking-dollars. Buy it here! (https://buy.louisck.net/purchase)
I am the first to admit that I pirate, a lot too. Still, I truly believe two of the main motivators behind pirating is not needing to deal with shitty DRM and ease of accessibility. It's the reason Steam is so successful and things like this should definitely be encouraged.
To those who might wish to "torrent" this video: look, I don't really get the whole "torrent" thing. I don't know enough about it to judge either way. But I'd just like you to consider this: I made this video extremely easy to use against well-informed advice. I was told that it would be easier to torrent the way I made it, but I chose to do it this way anyway, because I want it to be easy for people to watch and enjoy this video in any way they want without "corporate" restrictions.
Please bear in mind that I am not a company or a corporation. I'm just some guy. I paid for the production and posting of this video with my own money. I would like to be able to post more material to the fans in this way, which makes it cheaper for the buyer and more pleasant for me. So, please help me keep this being a good idea. I can't stop you from torrenting; all I can do is politely ask you to pay your five little dollars, enjoy the video, and let other people find it in the same way.
Sincerely,
Louis C.K.
