My hobby doesn't require me to pay for nothing, not does it rely on my
altruism.

In the hope that you can sell the domain name and indeed the site when
you've convinced enough people to use it.

See my point above,.

Yes it does, and I guess that just increases the amount of people you
can convince to come to your site by spamming.

The downside is, you're offering nothing but HD frames of any old shit
that the corporations feed you, which you then gush over, and need to
post to various newsgroups in the hope that one day you'll be able to
recoup your losses with either ads or by selling something down the
track (I would imagine HD titles).
Either that or you're absolutely stupid and enjoy being taken for a ride
by people who chew all your bandwitch by downloading single frames at
1080p, and guve you nothing in return.

Hahah decency doesn't involve you trying to flog your website, for
nefarious reasons.
