Yes, The Night They Saved Christmas is the one with Jacklyn Smith. If by “hoakie” you mean “awesome” then I agree completely. Otherwise, I question your taste in movies and your Christmas spirit. Don’t try to hide it – I know you teared up when Santa talked to her about the fishing rod he had left under her tree when she was a little girl.

Next time you are in Montgomery, you can come over to our house and watch it. You’ll see…

Ever since I was a child it’s been the Christmas Classic movies that really bring out the magic of the holidays for me. Wrapping up on the couch with my family and watching Frosty the Snowman or Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town – I’m transported back to my own childhood, and I feel the same peace and joy I did watching those same timeless movies with my parents.

I’m really glad I don’t have to wait for them to come on TV this year. Now there is a limited collector edition DVD box-set of all the Christmas Classics available, containing my two favorite Christmas movies plus five more. It even comes with a bonus music CD containing 7 favorite holiday songs! I only know about it because I work with the company, but you can buy it wherever you do your Christmas shopping. This is something my family and I will treasure for many holiday seasons to come.

Just kidding. This is the perfect example of the freedom consumers should have with the products they purchase, or the licensing of products they purchase.

The companies that are tightening their grasp on digital media are hurting customers like you, not the pirates. They make it difficult for you to enjoy your purchase. They fail, however, in their attempt to stop piracy.
