      Mine is accessibility driven. Oh, wanted to watch that series from last year to end? Too bad, it’s gone now.

      Mine’s mostly financial, my moral objection is to streaming shows where, even if you have money, you can’t buy the show on DVD.

      Though I wonder if streaming legally and ripping illegally would be the next viable option.

        You might be the only person in the country that knows how to use semi colons then. I thought it was just when you are already breaking apart a sentence in commas and want a list within one of those comma breaks.

          If you mean like when you’re creating a list of items that already contain commas, such as New York, NY; Boston, MA; and Sacramento, CA, then that is also a valid use of semicolons.

          My error was writing my sentence with a valid semicolon, then editing the sentence structure without replacing the semicolon with a comma before posting.

        If you’re using standalone as an adjective, you need to make sure it’s hyphenated or a single word.
