You have this real fascination with Divx...how much money did you lose
investing in it?

I've got a great idea - why not let people just burn them in their
fireplaces (check out the paper based disposable discs already being
used) - saves a trip and garbage too (or they could just throw it in
with the rest of their recyclables). While your at it, let them order it
online to be delivered with the rest of their groceries at Safeway.
I do like your idea of letting people keep the disks as long as they
want for a monthly fee...maybe you should put together a company like
that.
