When Epiphanies Go Bad

[the_other_sandy]

The BBC is starting up the new season of Sherlock on New Year's Day. The last I heard, we're not getting it on PBS until May. That means that in order to avoid spoilers, I won't be able to read Sherlock fic for five months. Five months. Yes, there are tools like Read It Later or Delicious where I could stash fic to read later, but five months. There will be so much fic stashed after five months that it'll be too overwhelming and I'll just wind up deleting it all without reading it anyway. I'm going to miss five months' worth of fic. And yes, I would like some cheese with my whine.

I can fully understand and respect that. I'm just impatient. lol Back when I was a huge Tori Amos fan, I would get a leaked copy of her new album, and still be at the store ASAP the day it came out. lol

At least you still buy the product. Unfortunately, too many people (who apparently don't understand how an economy works) refuse to pay for something when they can get it illegally for free with minimal effort. I've seen illegal downloads drive two U.S. anime distributors out of business.
