i just wanna know if its legal
sure it is… all you can watch are annoying commercials to make them money, like ‘point-and-click’ ads on various other websites. After that you should see whatever show you wanted it to be, unless like everything so-far, doesn’t work. Then you can watch another money-making commercial to help make them more money and let it tell you it has stopped. Then start again to try and watch whatever show but first watch another money-making commercial to help make them more money and wait for it not to let you watch whatever show so you can start again and… Sure some shows work but you can find them other places to do the same ting without the bothersome money-making commercial scheme. That’s what I found-out anyway 😉
