This one is the canary in the coal mine, that demographic (men in
their late 20's) is our *core* demographic, and the numbers we're
starting to post are big enough to make a hit they could see.  The
US market is approaching 2 million, tilted at least 75% toward young
males.

If it's a bad idea to pick a fight with someone who buys their ink
by the gallon, what kind of trouble are you breaking off when you're
in a fight with someone who owns their own satellites?
