Big TV flips ad blockers the bird

James Wray

Block em

As a site owner I would block people using adblockers, if we could do it without too many false positives.

Why should someone get to view my content without having to pay. No such thing as a free lunch. All you do by blocking is ensure site owners have to inflict others with more ads or degrade content.

If everyone used one then it would be pay to look or shut down for many sites.

Peter Jackson to lord over 'Rings' prequels

Money money

I am sure there is an expiry on when New Line had to do this. At least Tolkien did not sell the Silmarillion movie rights.

Two films seems excessive...I wonder if they will create a major female character and love angle. Can't see it without one. I mean one old guy and the rest all below 5ft with either hairy faces or hairy feet...or both. I bet Jackson and Walsh won't be able to resist 'improving' Tolkien.
