i'm not. i'm getting paid to review their site and content. the sad part is the content is beautiful if you're into gay erotica. very high end professional stuff from an extremely well known artist, but SO restricted it would be better for buyers imo just to buy the paper comic books.

btw, they don't tell you this - you discover it on your own.

the comics reside on your harddrive. i refused to deal with them, so i had one of my minions download a couple. each took up over 400 mb on his harddrive. i figured this is a form of DRM that "phones home". it didn't seem that their support had a clearer understanding than i do - even less in some areas.

(Or maybe the encryption key is tied to the web if the copy is not. It's hard to sort out exactly what they mean, and I suspect some of that is deliberate.)
i'm a paid reviewer here - i didn't have to pay to view the comics originally we strongly recommended they do a subscription website rather than this DRM stuff that people won't want to deal with.
