First, we get the 2 minutes of Disclaimers and Copyright notices, in 23 different languages. And then a notice from the FBI, in a few hundred other languages.
Then we’re forced to sit through a “Downloading-a-movie-is-like-stealing-a-car” clip, which you cannot fast forward, skip or even pause.

Ever wondered just how close you are to getting your pizza free for taking too long to get delivered?

I think this may be overkill though.

A few select quotes, from USA Today:
"I don't know how many consumers are twisting and turning over the state of their delivery pizza."
