'Cause I forgot....

Can anyone make a DVD of it for me? I'd be eternally grateful.

I forgot as well!

Can I borrow that DVD? Will they actually show back of the packers?

Sister did DVR it.  She just has to figure out how to put it on DVD.  I'll let you know if she does it.

She can even put it on VHS, if she has one. I'm one of the three remaining people in the civilized world who still has a VCR.


This whole "get a copy of the NYC Tri telecast" just took on a sense of urgency for me. Someone just told me that they watched it and they saw me.

X2 - I have it on my DVR and I need to figure out how to transfer it on to VHS. I'll try tonight.

You can see me for 3 seconds - Should I sign the copy for you :-)

If that's true, I can DVR it and burn it to DVD for you.  Of course, if it is true, then you'll probably just tape it and make your own copy onto whatever device this VCR thing is you speak of.

I saved it on the DVR, but do not have a VCR and do not have a recordable DVD player.

But I do have a Slingbox media player, if we could figure out a way to get you to sling to my box, you could just watch it directly off my DVR.

Ralph is correct. Set to air from 5pm-6pm.  DVR is set, maybe I'll make copies if for no other reason then to antagonize the Copyright police of this board who ran me out of town after the Kona DVD debacle.

[Intentionally take OP off topic, but..]

Just out of curiosity, what is the law on this? If I make 1 or 2 copies and give them away to friends free of charge, is it still illegal? I'm guessing yes, but how is it any different then giving away a CD/DVD (or is that illegal too)? (The original Kona DVD thread never did reach a legal conclusion, more of a Don't ask, Don't tell conclusion).

I'll pay for the consulation in NYC Tri/Kona DVD's.

You'll be fine distributing copies to all of us .. as long as you dont "show" it for money or charge us money for the content.. but we can send you the $1.50 for mail and cost of the cd..

where shall I send it ?

Don't worry about the postage. Let me make sure I DVR it first.  I'm not worried about breaking the law, I'm going to go ahead and record and burn it anyway, I was more curious for my own general knowledge.  Are you an IP/Copyright lawyer like condorman?  It makes sense that as long as I don't charge, then it's okay. But isn't this what Napster was doing, file sharing among "friends" for free?  While I realize it was on a massive scale, the concept is the same.

I'm sorry for killing the OP (we alla gree the NYC tri is on Sun 5p-6p), but since Condorman said he was an IP lawyer, and my aforementioned Kona thread never did get a legal answer, I was just curious.

Was there any mention of the jellyfish in the NYC coverage?

Or the fatality in the water?

No mention of the jellies and seriously, the overall video production was pretty amateurish and almost downright laughable.  I love seeing any tri on TV and I am very glad they aired it, but the everday athlete segments were so non-interesting and boring.  Compared to the other dozen-or-so triathlon tv races I've seen, this was by far the worst.  Oh well.

AGREED! -I've seen better family picnic videos.
For those that forgot to DVR it, it's on again tomorrow at 1pm and the next few days.
