  1. Re:So In Essence on How a Virginia Law Firm Outpaces the MPAA at Suing Over Movie Downloads · · Score: 1
    Come on! It's pretty obvious from the description alone that The Steam Experiment didn't need your help.

    The Steam Experiment, 2,000 Does. A few days later, yet another suit hit the DC District Court. Production company West Bay One sued an even 2,000 Does over its film The Steam Experiment, also known as The Chaos Experiment. The film stars Val Kilmer. According to the Internet Movie Database plot summary, "A deranged scientist locks 6 people in a steam room and threatens to turn up the heat if the local paper doesn't publish his story about global warming."

    in all seriousness though, I've read a lot about indie film finance and if they can earn 1/3 of $1.5 Million, that covers the cost of making the movie. Pretty much a no-brainer; much like "The Steam Experiment".

  2. Re:Apple versus Microsoft on iPad Bait and Switch — No More Unlimited Data Plan · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm going to go out on a limb ... from just the summary it would appear that this has very little to do with actions from Apple and has to do with actions from AT&T. If we were required to pick a 'bad guy' in this situation the choice would clearly be AT&T. However, everyone knew it was just a matter of time before tiered data plans started and unlimited stopped as it just makes sense. Yeah no...I get it...free and cheap is nicer...but I'd rather have the tiered data plan then have them go out of business and have nothing.

    Really? Have you read none of the articles on what the markup is for a Gigabyte of data bandwidth; on a text message? Please. Nobody is going to see AT&T go out of business. I hope they get their arses handed to them in a class action suit.
