Sell It To Me Or I'll Bittorrent It Dot Com

A recent bit of hilarity at the workplace, kept discreet for our reader's sake (note that "reader's" is the singular possesive, not the plural). We need a video to record from cable television. Since the business pays for cable, we go to the trusty cable box and change the channel to the station and attempt to purchase the pay-per-view content. Weird, there's no option to buy it, only an option to call the phone number printed on the screen. Okay, called the number. Looks like business accounts are not allowed to purchase pay-per-view content.

...

Did I hear that correctly?

Wow. Ummm, I guess I have nothing more to say...time to head over to the PC and bittorrent it. Hey, we tried to pay you but you said no.
