Maybe you guys have already discussed this, but I just listed to a Simmons b.s. podcast where he poses this question to the guy he was talking to: "If AMC decided to run the Breaking Bad season finale this Friday on pay-per-view for $49.95, but still ran the finale per usual on Sunday for free, would you buy the ppv or would you wait?"
Guy he was talking to said without hesitation that he would buy it. He would be mad at himself for doing it, but he wouldn't want to risk anyone spoiling it for him before he watched it on Sunday. Simmons agreed he would too.
Don't know if I would, but I would be tempted. If I decided to wait I'd have to go on a full technological blackout until Sunday.
