This was from a "bit chat" on Monday's show.

"According to "People Magazine," Ben Affleck is the sexiest man alive. He's engaged to J-Lo. He has already won an Oscar. He has at least $500 in his savings account. He probably even has the limited-edition Willie "E.T." McGee collectible coin (unconfirmed). What could he possibly have to look forward to? How about the entertainment industry opening its eyes, embracing file-sharing technology, and adopting subscription-based services? Yeah, that might do the trick. Affleck, the executive producer of Project Greenlight 2 winner The Battle of Shaker Heights, talks to Jessica Corbin about his views on file sharing. It's good stuff, not unlike Affleck's performance in Dazed and Confused."

At least $500 bucks in his savings account huh? LOL I would hope it was more than that considering what his purchasing habits are probably like. His embracing of filesharing is not really too much of a surprise tho since he started out with independent films.Although having big names on the side of filesharing is definately a plus. Unfortunately I was not able to watch the clip due to not being able to watch streaming clips =(
