Hey, Europeans, anyone interested in getting together on IRC to watch Eurovision?

Obviously it's one connect to the internet, and that's about all you need...

You have got to be joking, yes? Well, I suppose, yes, I could download an episode: it's a large file but I have broadband. However, it would sit on my hard disk occupying far too much of it with absolutely nothing to do. Is it really beyond your comprehension that not everyone owns the kind of computer that can play episodes? Evidently so.

Wow. I think I'll extract myself from this conversation, since I was trying to be helpful, not asking to be bitched at.

I appreciate that you meant to be helpful, and I'm sorry I bitched at you for it. Making assumptions that everyone has a computer of sufficient memory and disk space to be able to freely download and play videos is not helpful, however, which is what I hope you will take away from this - despite my bitching.
