Comments on: The Players DVD Review http://climbingnarc.com/2009/06/the-players-dvd-review/ So obsessed with climbing it hurts...

Companies need to adapt to change rather then fight it. Just look at all the money lost by the record industry by their unwillingness to just supply cheap convenient downloads of their music. If they had started off by adapting, instead of suing people for downloading music, they wouldn't have a problem. People are willing to pay money to have a high quality copy that was convenient to get. As it is right now though, it's easier to get the torrent rather then pay the $30 to wait a week or more for their DVD to arrive...

Netflix actually has a fair number of climbing vids, but they are not organized in any kind of coherant manner. If you go to Sports and then to mountain climbing, some of them come up, but a better way is just to search for "chris sharma" or "dave graham" or whoever you worship. I assume the producers get some money then and it's not $30. ce Oh yeah, another less controversial way to preview movies would be to rent them.

Not sure $30 good, but good. Perhaps my standards are low. Can't be any worse than Inertia. Now that one sucked. I do question the name-- if a climber is a true "player" as stated and defined in the beginning of the clip, then they certainly would not be in any videos or publicity hounds. I personally do not think this many climbing movie companies can possibly survive. You watch a vid once, maybe twice? They're kinda all the same, so why would you need more than a couple unless it featured a local area or something. What climbers can afford every new climbing movie that comes out? None, I would guess. Whatever. ce I kinda thought the preview was pretty good. Not sure $30 good, but good. Perhaps my standards are low. Can’t be any worse than Inertia. Now that one sucked.

Why should I waste my hard earned dollar on something I don't feel is worth $30 something? I'll download it, and if I like it, then I'll go a buy it. If I don't like it, I'll delete it. I'm not going to let a shit movie take up gigs. So far, what I've seen is shitty, but maybe the previews don't show some scenes I'd really like.

Please do a little research, and sort out your homonyms mang... If your argument is a race car that you drive around to pick up chicks or dudes or whatever floats your boat, having these successive "wrong word fails" is like driving around with a large human turd on the hood of said car. No shorties be steppin' to yo ride playa. Sorry about the personal pet peeve moment all, please get back on topic now. Peace. ......................... …………………….
