Sat2PC is Not Scam, Fraud or Cable TV Piracy? Free Downloads

Saw on eBay several postings on Sat2PC claiming thousands of cable tv channels without paying a single penny just by using a software.

I don't know how it works but i guess it's an Internet TV channel aggregator but the channels, some of them probably premium channels.

Sat2PC requirements? i guess an Internet connection since it doesn't have a satellite antenna and hardware to receive tv signals.

I didn't try to downloads it but i think it can be downloaded for free.

I think Sat2PC is not a hoax and a scam but there's one thing I'm sure of:

Sat2PC is Piracy, however you call it :(

Pilipinas Got Talent Season 2 Grand Finals Results: The Judges !hould be Fired

My toddle's nanny is watching Pilipinas Got Talent on ABS-CBN since last night and I can't help but comment on the judges' ineptitude who seemed to trivialize the talent show to a showbiz talk show

I don't know about the third judge, but Kris Aquino and Ai-ai delas Alas don't deserve to be judges of the talent show, thinking people will notice.

How's being "gwapo" enough to win a talent show, such comment from a judge

Puso or awa, called "argumentum ad misericordiam" in logic got to do with talent? if you get swayed by awa for a contestant due to the contestant's pitiful background, you're not really a good judge

No premium on originality, i saw a boy trying hard to mimic Bruno Mars got high marks...for a show really looking for talent, a premium should be paid for originality, nothing "plakado" or just gaya-gaya, puto maya. you're looking for great talents, not "secong rate trying hard, copycats"

i might be harsh but it's the truth :(

I abhor non-original Filipino Music trying hard to call themselves OPM...sorry but that just don't cut it...

enough rant...who cares if it's the number one trend on twitter trending. IMHO, TV5's Talentadong Pinoy's cast are more talented bunch than Kapamilya's Pilipinas Got Talent

Cars Toon: Mater's Tall Tale: Tokyo Mater Theme Song/MP3 Downloads

My son had just dumped Barney, Thomas the Tank Engine and Dora the Explorer for the latest DVD I bought for him: Cars Toon Mater's Tall Tales by Pixar

The DVD has an catchy theme song particularly the closing scene of Tokyo Mater where Mater became the Drift King.

I can't find the song/soundtrack on torrent and information on Pixar's official blog is sketchy. I found the song on YouTube and just converted the sound on it using an online TouTube to MP3 converter.

Now my son's dancing to the music from my mobile phone.

I thing I noticed is that the song's not kind of japanese, I can't understand a word despite knowing a few Nihingo words (studied it in college) so i think it's Korean (korean song for a japan setting of Cars?)
