Tired of Waiting for Nick to Upload Eps. (A Rant)
 
I got so sick and tired of waiting for Nick to upload the latest episode, I bought the whole season on iTunes, but (evidently) you need WiFi (even on my iPhone?) to download these shows. However, I don't have WiFi at home, and I'm not going to camp in a McDonald's, a Starbucks, et. al., nor am I going to pay for cable (ever), because I hardly watch TV anyway.

Kiss my ass, Nickelodeon.

What a whiner. And cheapskate.

^^ Is this a bot?

You know if you have all of these potential solutions to your problem and you just decide not to do them I can't really feel your pain.

Dirty Blond 10-22-2012 09:17 PM

^^ Is this a bot? I've been wondering.

Vivi 10-22-2012 09:17 PM

Would it be on itunes before Nick uploaded it, anyway?
Anyway, it's your rant. Hope you blew off some steam and realized it's not really a problem :)

Good one. You showed me.

I'm just saying. You stated a few solutions but kinda brushed them off. What do you want?

I'm about as much of a bot as you have dignity.

"Waaaaah, Nick owes meeeeeee. I'm too much of a baby to get cable or go to a wifi spot to get what I waaaaaaaaant."

You could always just watch it on illegal, seedy, torrent websites.....not that I condone it.

Zulithe 10-23-2012 02:44 AM

how can you not have access to wifi in 2012? you have bigger problems than Nick not putting the shows on their website, man

Berserker 10-23-2012 06:37 AM

Wait, you specifically need wifi to download the shows? Or just internet? I'm confused. Are you saying you don't have internet at home?

chrisdude 10-23-2012 07:20 AM

Yeah, you don't need wifi to use iTunes at home... iPhones come with these little cables that let you transfer data from your personal computer.

He doesn't have internet other than what sounds like 3g/4g cell phone access.

Yes, the shows on iTunes are in either HD or SD format in either regards the file sizes will be huge and just about all cell carriers do not allow those types of data transfers. You can't even download some apps because they are so big over the cell network.

If you don't have internet at home you can't download from your personal computer.

Look I am not defending the guy, if he bought an iTunes pass and refuses to get the content the way Apple (not nickelodeon) wants him to get it that is his choice. This isn't Nick's fault, this is Apple's and your cell companies issue.

Wow. This is so stupid. Nick will upload the episode eventually. Maybe your best bet would be to get cable/satellite. That way, you can watch the show like everybody else.

Dirty Blond 10-23-2012 09:49 AM

I said it was a rant; a few of you have been quite helpful, and I'm grateful for it.

Since I have the day off I am actually going to park it at a Panera Bread an' filch their WiFi. I'll probably have six cups of coffee and whatnot, and the girls that hang out there are usually pretty cool.

/end thread?

It shouldn't take too long to download the 5 episodes, especially is in SD. If you have the itunes pass it's not like you have to stream them. Download them to your laptop, phone, or tablet and go home. Shouldn't take more than 15-30 minutes or so.

FearlessLeader 10-23-2012 12:39 PM

Yeah I downloaded the 5 episodes shown so far in SD to my Kindle and it took me slightly less then 20 mins. Good luck!
