Ad hominem is when I attack you because I don't have an argument.
Wrong. Ad hominem is attacking your opponent personally rather than his argument. When you say "If you cannot see that, then you don't have very strong logical skills," that's ad hominem. Glad to help you.
simple logic: If I can buy a DVD and pay a company to sanitize it, there is no practical distinction for me buying it from the company with the DVD already sanitized. The end result is the same: I buy a DVD that is sanitized.
No. You have bought a dvd. You altered it on your own. I see that as fundamentally different than buying a dvd that was altered by a company for resale. You don't have to agree with me, but insulting my logical skills is clearly ad hominem and adds nothing to the discussion.
