Why the "let me pretend I am asleep" reply? It's ok to beat the demise of skyride topic to death but its not ok to discuss the acceptance of it?

Obviously some of the bigger well known DZ's have come to accept their services. Why can't you? I bet each and every one of you would be surprised at the level of interest Skyride has generated for skydiving as a whole. Is it possible that everyone in the sport has benefited from that generated interest to some degree? I think so. So they have stolen some copyrighted images, in the age of the internet who hasn't? Has this caused any physical harm to anybody? I don't think so. Has it caused monetary damages, perhaps, but how in the hell can you measure that? And if you could measure it, it would probably be pretty slim. Have they perhaps stolen a customer or two from any given DZ? Maybe, but business is business, it is cut throat. Instead of crying about it perhaps you should take the same approach and find a way to steal their customers. Humm, thats an idea. I have a hard time believing for as long as this has gone on, no one has been able to figure out a way to beat them at their own game. Are you telling me you cant beat them? Well then how about joining them? Imagine how much money everyone would make if all DZ's accepted skyride. Put up, shut up or sign up. It really is that easy.
