Well, I'm fucked...half of my posts ARE from Marvel Comics, what should I do?
The problem is that I only post comics I stumble upon during my roaming in the Internet. I NEVER scan them myself, traded them for money etc (see disclaimer above), nor save it in my own PC in that matter. What I'm doing is simply compile it (in form of link directing! not content saving, you hear that Marvel!!!) to one place (this blog) so that those who love comics (by Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Images) or manga, can have access to what they like--something which elude someone like me to have them in the past. You know WHY???. Because those comics ARE expensive GODDAMNIT!!! Especially for most teenagers in the third-world country, not to mention that they are NOT published or distributed in those countries. How else comic lovers can enjoy something which they can't get but really love? Turning to the World Wide Web of course.
Comics are simply the uniting factors for this sick world, you know. What unite teenage Palestinian suicide bomber, or a middle class Indonesian like me, with the typically spoiled, self-absorbing, pampered American boys? It is Spiderman, Wolverine, the whole X-Men team, The whole Marvel Universe for that matter you know...
And Marvel try to steal that from us. Yeah STEAL, because the digitally scanned comics are the closest things to happiness we can get to the both real EXPENSIVE or unavailable one.
Of course we respect copyright, and intelectual or creative right or the goddamn Digital Millennium Copyright Act mentioned in the email above, that's why bloggers like me who post comics contents (there are thousands out there) DO NOT trade it for money. "Which part of FREE DOWNLOAD you don't understand?" We gain no single penny from your contents, Marvel! SO it's just ridiculous that you act like what I do (or those thousands bloggers) has cause you major damage in revenue (you should blame other corporate capitalists in your country for that--the economic crisis, you know, it is caused by THEM, not US). You should THANK us, in fact, because what we do is MAJOR ADVERTISEMENT to YOUR products, in which we do volunteerly without any expense in your end whatsoever. You should PAY us, instead of unabashedly bitching to whatever web host service out there about copyrighted content in their servers and ruin or source of web traffic we built with blood and sweats, literally. Because I believe the uploading of your contents (or any other comic publishers) so that it can be downloaded by as many people will give you more profit, it call ADVERTISEMENT you moron! In case you didn't notice, my blog is barely global, it don't even have pagerank!!! I'm but a tiny virus-sized spot to your MASSIVE profit, and I don't believe that this blog ever reached your loyal customers, so what damage can I cause if I even never INSIDE your market? But if you insist on the copyright infringement issue, You'll lose. Remember Napster?
Yeah this kind of thing has happened before, but hey look, we still have those nice peer-to-peer data swap services. We heard of the terms free-wares, free-MP3, now and then. Radiohead even gave their new album for FREE! That, in time, will constitute your downfall, MARK my words!!!
