You can call it that.  Too much negative connotation for me.

Knowledge?  We've got almost all we need right here with 
some of the developers participating directly with us.  The 
latest thread on commercial detection comes to mind right away.

D1 is a relatively nice player.  They are up front about where they 
get their software from.  It seems that they also have a schedule 
site which seems like it gives back to the myth community directly.
This crap with videowithoutboundaries and trying to hide they 
run myth is a bunch of bs.  I wish EFF or FSF could shut them 
down.  I mean, it's not like they have tons of cash.  Their 
stock is trading so low it could almost be considered a 
penny stock.  How they are still in business is beyond me.
