For the same price of these digital rentals, you can buy a used physical copy within a week of release, and guess what? You can lend or resell it later! Also, if Redbox can rent movies for under $2 (blu-rays), surely they can stream it for the same price.
If they really cared, the previous version would be 50+% off and the version(s) before that would be free. The same goes for Adobe and their ilk. You don't HAVE to offer any support, but if you sold older versions cheaper and/or free, you would have much less piracy. You know they're not going to buy the new version, so why not take what you can get for the older stuff? I was gonna buy a legit copy of 7 for my next build, but it's the same price it's been since launch, and that is 2.1 versions ago. Fuck that.
Not sure why ANYONE who visits this page would support Disney after learning of either their unequivocal support of incessant copyright extensions or their dastardly, anti-consumer, "back in the vault" false-scarcity shenanigans. You all are very disappointing...
Even just changing the setting would be refreshing. I mean, fine, keep the name, but please leave Mars alone. Hell, they put in on the moon and can it Moon (using the doom font of course). Portal to hell (or heaven, to destroy angels and whatnot) on the dark side of it. Easy peasy.
If it isn't Netflix, it's first-run movies or tv series. Their precious regioning should have been dismantled over a decade ago. It seems like music is generally available worldwide in a decent amount of time, so why the hold-up for video? Availability should be a requirement of all copyright laws. If you're not gonna sell it someplace, well I guess it's your loss. it's 2016 ffs. if you can't play globally, gtfo.
Wait. The same asshat that allowed others to create in his universe, then fuck them over, is butt-hurt because that new universe's owners went against what he would've wanted? Fuck that guy and his Boba-Fett/Jaster Mareel ret-con bullshit.
so many games and emulators on phones always seem to put the damn buttons over the game screen. for most phones, anyways, there is no reason to not pillarbox the game screen and leave ample room on the sides for the buttons, as all these old systems are 4:3.
Sure, but we've already categorized arms and even set certain restrictions on some ('destructive devices", for example), so now we get to discuss the future of all new types of arms as they become available.
I'm not sure you understand what I said.
To clarify: My used Macbook came with Snow Leopard, and I automatically updated to Yosemite, because I didn't know any better. A piece of hardware(M-Audio Firewire Audiophile) and some software(Native Instruments Komplete 2) I had expected to work, because I thought, "hey, osx = osx, right?" didn't. I had to downgrade to the last possible version that was known to be working with the hardware, Lion. The software still didn't work. I was then going to bootcamp to WindowsXP, as I know both the hardware and software works with it. The Bootcamp tool in Lion will only let me use Windows 7 or later, which is retarded.
I'll stop all of the torrenting of music that I do, but only if copyright is severely limited. A simple 10 year years is more than enough. Anything from before that is up for grabs. Deal?
Seriously though, if they're not going to put anything back into the public domain in a reasonable time (read: in my lifetime), they can pound sand.
I bought a used 2009 macbook recently, updated to the latest version of the SAME 64 bit os, and lo and behold, hardware and software that should work with it didn't, because mavericks didn't like it. Of course, there was no discs included with the used macbook, so I had to downgrade to an older version that did. That was pretty shitty. Then, I was gonna bootstrap xp on it too (to use some old DAW software that doesn't like vista+), but noooo, even the version I downgraded to limits how far back I can bootstrap to (win7). Fucking lamesauce all around. Probably wouldn't have had to torrent all the stuff that WAS compatible if they weren't such dicks.

After that $20 movie is out for awhile, used copies can be had for $1, so the value of said content drops severely.
I hope you don't buy any content second-hand because once a retail copy has been sold, the creators get nothing more from that.

nice. will have to try this.

because we give them billions every year?
If the school received any public funding, then yes, they should.

Any company that has had any dealings with Mark Healey deserves to go tits up.

if you have to facilitate ANY part of a crime, then you suck at police work.

The only time they stop them is when they themselves are complicit. We call them sting operations.

$59k isn't very much for what they want. the value of cracking tor should be measured in the millions.
well charms do hang on bracelets, so....

i'd add that it has to "made available" to be protected. none of this back-in-the-vault bullshit.
yeah, for this game, but console games, in general, have been rushed with more bugs than in the era of non-patchableness.
Anyone else notice that since the last generation of consoles got the ability to patch games, they've been buggier upon release?
