I'm not paying for PPVs, and I don't feel guilty one bit. If Wrestling dies because of it, so be it. I'll just watch more porn and cartoons.

I agree with this. I'm a cheap college student so I don't even have cable/satellite in the first place. Even if I did I don't think I'd purchase a PPV since I don't have that much money to purchase one. The quality can be poor with the streams but it works and if you have an HDMI cable like I do you can easily connect it to your TV and watch it on a bigger screen. For me there's no reason to have to pay for it :lol1:

You can buy the ppvs online and get great quality, then stream it to your tv. You don't need a satellite or cable to watch ppv's.

Anyways, I think i've watched one raw from a stream. I don't know how you guys could manage to watch an interesting ppv on a stream(unless it's a hd stream directly from tna or wwe which is like 10-15 bucks cheaper btw) I don't know. I'm not sure how TNA is, but WWE threw in two free ppvs this year for me. I understand that people don't have money but I would atleast save up money for the ones you want to watch.

I can get streams at better quality than your TV (unless you've bought the HD PPV)

I'm assuming anyone that is willing to spend the money is willing to fork over the additional 5 to watch it in HD. I don't know anyone that would order it to watch it in SD.
