When Tara said "Morrison" I heard "Morrissey." My god, Manson doing Morrissey would be fucking hilarious.

[The Butler]

Pig kicking time.

[Chob]

Goddamn where do they get this audio from? Sounds awful.

Mel seems like the type to try and take credit for Stern's success.

When you sue the company for $300 million, the company tends to get pissed off.

Strong point.

The way Brent describes Mel, reminds me of the same way Phil's David G. Hall character would talk to Phil.

Well maybe if the company honored Howard's wishes they wouldn't have this problem.

Stern on a platform that makes no money.

Only way that would work is if Stern bought it out if he wanted to play programmer. But no way Stern gives up any of his marbles.

The suing for 300 million is a bit misleading. It was a suit claiming the xm merger subscriptions counted as Sirius subscriptions or not and having the legal system interpret the contract. The courts just about hobbled over backwards for Sirius in their judgment.

Stern's contract didn't specify subscribers specifically subscribing for him, his contract didn't define those people, it was simply "subscribers". So the court basically created this subset of subscribers that were a result of stern and stated that they have access to stern.

Then they looked at the gained xm subscriptions and said "they don't have access to stern so they aren't a result of him".

When I read it I was shocked at how liberal they were with the contract's interpretation rather than what going by what was written. It was as if sirius's lawyers wrote the decision.

[Chob]

Bubba, your lack of awareness of your channel is your own doing.

[The Butler]

Once every other month Bubba cares about what's on io.

[iobane]

Woah woah woah.

Colin found them you pile of shit hatley.

Something I didn't quite get is what counts as an "HS generated subscriber." By how I interpreted it, I wouldn't have counted because I didn't sign up as part of some special promotion.
