Captain Video came!

For a few years, I have gotten stuff from Alpha Video with no worries or anything about stupid "bugs" as they call them, put on the screen to identify where the video came from. But they marred Captain Video with the stupid things! It's only there though, when the words "CAPTAIN VIDEO" are on the screen. If they made it so you can't rip the DVDs, then why bother putting that stupid bug on there? It's not like you can somehow get the video off the disc and put it onto YouTube or something. And since they made it impossible to do, they really should do away with the famous FBI warning screens warning people it's illegal to copy the discs. HELLO! YOU CAN'T! YOU MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE! I bet they did the same things to the other DVD I got. Anyway, I only watched one episode so far. It's like that other one I saw on YouTube, with the poor audio/video quality. I could barely make out what the people were saying! If that was the quality of TV back in the '50s, I would have been very depressed. Anyway, I don't want to go through the hassle of getting a new chair for my room. It's a wooden chair, so it's kind of uncomfortable to sit on for long periods of time unless I am deep in work on a program or something so I don't notice it. I guess I want to support Alpha for bringing these old shows from the DuMont Network onto DVD, but less so if they put the damn stupid bugs at the beginning and ends of the programs. I get to go to a flea market at about 8am, so wish me luck. Last time I was there, I did find a few video game related things, but I passed because they were mostly stupid sports titles and stuff I had or didn't want. I already have an NES Game Genie, the same one I used since I was a kid. Unfortunately, they don't work on the newer models for some reason. I always wondered Nintendo's stance on those things. You'd think it would make them happy to increase the sales of their video games. Look, in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a stupid Alpha Video bug!
