Firstly, Hi DGK, and welcome to the board.
And where’s that bloody Aleck when you need him?, one to help DGK with the easter eggs and secondly to explain to would-be pirates what happens when you do it.

Washing the blood off, apparantly. That stuff gets *everywhere*.
Ain’t no easter eggs on the LEXX discs. I wanted to hide some on there (particularly the V5 one), but never got to. Actually, there isn’t a whole lot we *could* have hidden on there. Pretty much everything we had access to is slapped right there in plain sight. But it was something I wanted to do as a kind of fun feature. *shrug*
I’m not going to weigh in on the trading front. I’m not going to tell someone that if they missed an episode that they’ll have to wait until either Sci-Fi reruns it or it becomes commercially available to see it again, and I’m not going to tell people to have a big copyright-infringing free-for-all. I will say, however, that people traded tapes of the show long before we released the vids, and I don’t think that we’ve been hurt by it. I’m not encouraging it, and am in fact vehemently discouraging it when it comes to commercially-available episodes, but I don’t think that people getting their hands on cut and sub-par presentations of the episodes is worth much hand-wringing, either. Selling them, and making a profit from them, is another matter, and I’m dead-set against it. But when it comes to downloading MPEGs or sending a tape of an episode to a friend, I’m not worried one way or the other. Just don’t bring it up where I have to pay attention to it, and keep buying the vids as they come out, and I’ll remain blissfully ignorant.
