--kresnik-- 08/21/17 11:59:07 AM #22:	I would have thought the entire season would have been released before hbo had a chance to do anything. I already paid my hbo subscription, but I totally side with the hackers. Hbo is too expensive and it's a racket. Most of us just want to see one tv show, but we have to pay for a year's worth of the most disgustingly sexual garbage. Okay, I get that that's the way cable packages work. What really pisses me off is that they made that deal with Amazon to where you have to pay another $100 to see them. I'm a prime member. Just let me pay $2-3/episode like I was promised when I signed up. --- southcoast09 <cite>--kresnik-- posted [p:885176173] in HBO hacker...
