So...I'm betting on NOT being able to borrow S2 Buffy DVDs over X-Mas - so I ask you...where can I download Buffy Episodes? Actually - I only care about downloading "What's my line" parts 1&2 - so Matt and I can watch that and then watch the wonderful tapes which I bought from you. So...any suggestions?

Yeah, I'd rather not lend my DVDs out over that long a break if possible; I trust you very much, but a lot can happen in a month, especially with more people around than just you and Lauren.

I don't know where you can download entire episodes off the Net. There used to be websites with lots of episodes up in one place (I saw "Restless" for the first time after I downloaded it over a month on my 56K modem), but FOX cracked down on the biggest ones for copyright infringement and they've all disappeared or gone so underground I don't know where they are anymore. I know that you can download episodes through alt.binaries newsgroups, but I neither know where they are or how they work. You could try file-sharing programs such as Kazaa. I've been trying to download "Storyteller" through that and not succeeding very well, though that could be due to the ASC firewall.

I would recommend checking out video rental places. And you could have 3 discs out at a time with Netflix, which is about $20 a month. Or saving up a dollar a day for...44 days...*sigh*

Last time I checked you couldn't rent them in Florence.
I completely understand about the not lend them - I wouldn't either.
Hmmm.....I'll think on it.
