Since we are so keen on going after foreigners breaking our laws outside of our jurisdiction, we lose the option of being outraged when another country does the same.
No one said free, but in this day and age, they should be playing globally from the moment something is released. In fact, copyright should stipulate availability in order to be protected, given the ease of digital distribution and all.
And other things, like resale value and secondary markets. If you remove that sort of stuff, the price should drop accordingly. The same is also true of other media.
"cams" are straight-up, sitting-in-the-theater bootlegs.
"telesyncs" are shot from the projectionist booth, with a telephoto lens and generally use the equipment's audio out synced with the video.
"screeners" are are discs sent out, usually before awards season (but before the home video market), for people to screen.
Seriously, if he was breaking US law in the US and then fled, sure, go ahead and extradite. Anything else is completely fucked up and probably should be illegal. Does anyone with a brain realize that this would completely justify the obverse?
I guess I'm wrong, but seriously, all of this should be native in 2014, even XP could open them natively.
Do these additional apps also let you put the content into the correct folders for frequent access (in my case, an zipped mp3 album)?
Of course there's still the other stuff that Apple won't allow you to do, and having to jailbreak is completely ridiculous.
I just switched myself, but it was to a Galaxy S5 from an Iphone 4S. I couldn't be happier. How rad is it to download a zip file, unzip it, and view the contents, all from a phone? Until Apple can do this, and the many other things they won't allow, they can eat a bag of dicks.
The problem is that it's a fucking heinous thing to allow said fanboy fan fiction to published (for all intents and purposes, blessed by Lucasfilm) for money, and then shit all over it. It's a slap in the face to those authors and those who bought the works. If I were any more pissed, I'd demand they be forced to recall all of it.
Except that if you click a Facebook Like on ANY site, you are consenting to that like be made known on Facebook. KitFox was correct: the clicker made the share, not anyone else.
i'd wager that the look and sound is part of the experience.
as for the news, i think the resolution should match whatever it's being viewed on. if the tv is hd, the broadcast should be.
where's my personal sam site and suitcase nuke? surely the founders meant any type of arms. any argument against those can easily be used against any other type of weaponry. it's all or none or gtfo.
Or random, say 2-3, car bombs going off in major cities over a couple of days. If placed in the right spot, they could cripple those economies for weeks. Rinse and repeat every couple of months.
It is really sad all the money that we waste, when most of it won't stop something so miniscule yet effective.
The Dropbox web page warned him and his friend that 'certain files in this folder can't be shared due to a takedown request in accordance with the DMCA.
AFAIK, takedown requests happen after it is suspected that a file may violate the DMCA.
So, can you just browse/search publicly shared folders? Otherwise, how would any content company know what is shared (unless posted on some public page), so they could then file a takedown request?
He's not talking about first run viewing ffs. He's talking about what is currently available for rent.
If you can rent out the physical copy for $1-2 (say from redbox), a copy that has the ability to be copied and never rented again, then surely you can rent me a streaming version (that can't be copied and is of lessor quality than that of the blu-ray) of that same movie for the same price.
I agree. I'd even make it (or some other way of "must be made available" language) a provision of copyright. No more vault-hoarding. Out of print should mean out of copyright.

Except Buds, Coors and Coronas ARE the sewer brews.
What if I want multiple true blu-ray quality (20-50Mbps plus uncompressed audio) streams? What about the 4K tvs and the eventual streaming of that?

A vast majority of the Criterion Collection comes as part of a Hulu Plus subscription, nearly worth the $8/m8nth just to have that.

the drm needed to be cracked BEFORE they could be ripped and then put online for download...

perhaps jammie thomas-rasset should have been charged with 24 counts of misdemeanor theft then.
let me guess: he bangs mentally challenged girls on a short bus. probably runs a site for it to?

if i'm giving away my right to sell and/or lend the games, then surely the price should be under $10, and even that's asking a lot.

They need to fix that problem.

surprisingly, my 4-year-old blu-ray player's netflix app is much better than roku's, at least when it comes to browsing.
and even then, it will still not be anywhere near the quality of the physical good.
