Some very good points.. This is all very much relatively new and that's why I feel it is in a grey area.. Heck, how long did it take them to shut down Napster and Kaza? If it was so black and white they would have shut it down immediately IMO.. Instead it grew into almost a 100m user network..

That seems like an incredibly shallow view of why it took so long to shut down Napster. File sharing services have legitimate purposes; they're just often overwhelmed by the illegitimate ones.

As far as the DVD I agree with you.. It would be pretty tough to tell someone not to show it to someone else for example.. So, if we use the aimpoint DVD as a case someone could technically buy it and then when ever one of his buddies visited he could say hey did you hear about this and show him the video.. I understand that they might not get the whole experience, but aimpoint put the DVD to teach people and not to snare them into going to an instructor.

How do you know why Mark produced the DVD? I happen to have a pretty good idea because, as one of his instructors, I have participated and read conversations in which this is the topic. The two main reasons:

  • Make money
  • Spread the word about AimPoint and drive interest, which drives students to instructors.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 1 (9 Mar 26) - starting up again with a week layoff due to travels.  Played with the men’s group for the Monday shootout.  Was good to play, had some rust especially the long game, especially getting proper weight shift.

      Day 204 3-9 Wrist arch through downswing and getting wider with backswing. Need to continue working on getting trail arm "reconnected" as it still seems a bit off with wider backswing.

      Saw these today, this is a scam.  Joined in 2026.  Click his name and then his profile.  2 posts, no friends, one item for sale.  These clubs are probably takes from Temu. Facebook

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Range again today. A few freezers and a few smoothies. If I add a little speed I swing further arms go deeper and lower and more across again. Really like where this freezer got to on backswing:   This is a smoothie (ish). Clubhead tracks up the hands nicely but the things go a bit wrong: At normal speed: Lastly one shortish pitch shot. Pitching some days I come out and can drop it on the flag. Other days it’s going sideways. Like missing right or left by 10 yards from 50 yards and nothing in between. I suspect it’s from the hands coming out and the cut across. If I release it on that line it’s going left. If I hold it off it’s going right and then it’s timing. When it’s off it’s off. Feels like if I can get that under control it will tighten up a lot.

      Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

      By Elmer · Posted

      Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. Which I believe used to host a LPGA tournament. Fantastic course, compared to what I typically play. So fantastic I carded a 115! in my defense it was 90 degrees by 9 am in late July. Not to mention whatever grass they had around the green was absolutely foreign to me, I could not get my wedge through it. The entire grass came up like it was a piece of shag carpet. Suffice to say my short game was a mess. but good times!
