Why do some websites insist that you can actually watch something for free, if they still start whining about how I should pay for it right afterwards? :confused:

I do not recall the free distribution of cigarettes/cigars/pipes/any other tobacco product in my lifetime.

That's because it's illegal to do so in most western countries. It's pretty common in developing countries where such laws do not exist.

It's they're way of saying "we have what you want...you can see it, but if you want more, you MUST PAY!"

I haven't seen any of that happen around here, at least.

Anyway, to address the original topic of this thread: You did watch a full two minutes without paying. That's pretty free.
