We have been informed that you have recently passed on some copies of Strand Films....STOP TRADING WITH OUR PRODUCTS We have your full name and address and if we hear any more copies of our tapes have been sold we will deal with it.

I love it when pornmesiters get arsey about this kind of thing - all I hear is echoes of the music idustry in the seventies: "HOME TAPING IS KILLING MUSIC!!!"

"ANDY JONES IS KILLING PORN!!!"

Like f.uck. You'll get no sympathy round here, so piss off.

I would hasten to add that I am not Andrew Jones. Nor have I ever heard of Andrew Jones. I know copyright theft is technically illegal which is one reason I don't do it - moreover I prefer to have "originals" in my collection.

However, this kind of "trading" (I assume you mean selling rather than swapping) does your business more good than harm, by fostering new fans.

To Score,

Could you explain please how you will deal with this person. I`m just curious because years ago I taped a Beatles album for a friend and I would hate to think Paul McCartney might be after me.

I presume you were talking about legal action were you?

I personally only buy originals because pirates are piss poor picture quality. Mind you so are originals from certain piss-pot amatuers who produce crap product that is not even worth pirating.

I have never heard of Score. Who the fuck are you? I think I will stick with the likes of Your Choice. You don`t hear them whingeing about some bloke making a copy of one of thier tapes. Maybe thats because they are too successfull to worry about trivial shit like that. Is Score a legally registered company that pays tax like Your Choice is ?

Apologies to Score. I meant to say Strand in the post above. Its late and I`m tired. No offence meant to Score. But Strand should worry if another company rips-off thier product not rubbish like that mentioned above.

I agree. I also noted the posting a while ago where Marcus Allen took the opportunity to turn an innocuous (and perfectly justified IMO) deletion by Alec into a rant whereby everyone else was a nonce and he was the toxic f*ckin' avenger. IMO there's far too much aggro on these boards, and most of it's perpetrated by small-time "industry" types like Allen and this guy from Strand.

With individuals like these making thinly-veiled threats of personal violence on the internet, it's no wonder the industry has such a bad reputation. There are enough enemies of decent consensual adult entertainment out there without this kind of squabbling in the community itself. For the love of porn, let's keep it friendly, chaps.

At the end of the day A. Jones is a cunt and if the guys from Strand want a lift to his house I'll only too gladly offer my services (in a driving capacity only!)
By the way Jones, I hope you have virus software on your machine!
