Is it just me, or hasn't anybody else noticed that the bulk of the movies iVideoBlast.com sells on their site for $.99 to $1.99 are the same films you can download for FREE at Archive.org? Other than paying them for the compression and server time, I'm not sure what justifies their prices.

Sorry for the double post - Safari gave me a connection error but posted anyway. Can someone delete the other thread?

They're just public domain videos, so there's no real reason to pay for them unless you can't find them elsewhere.
