Well, ok. But one search in google will tell you everything.
But you gotta know what to search for. I doubt they've ever even heard the phrase "bit torrent".
Burn movies to watch them on a tv? It's called a media player and streaming. Pff, you live in the 2000's
I guess I do.
But they've got you, don't they? You're telling me you couldn't teach them: "Push this button, enter search term here, click on link", after you set up their computer for them?
Fuck that. I've got enough hassle as the family IT guy as it is. I don't want to add bit torrenting to the list.
Who's talking about DVD's, digital copies man, it's the future! Or rather, the present.
I still watch DVD's...
If I could rent all movies, digitally and in HD, for a dollar (that's like 75 cents over here), I'd stop downloading, immediately
Red Box doesn't carry the latest releases and I don't think they have bluerays.
Ok, fair enough. But really, A dollar? A dollar is too much to pay for a movie?
No, not at all. That wouldn't have anything to do with it. They've got money, but they'd still take the free route if they could.
Well, not sure if I should lay out pirating ways on the forum for all to see. Search on google for "Bittorent", or "how to torrent", and it will all be made clear. Just get the program they tell you to, go to the pirate bay, and download away. Might also want to google for "how to turn uploading off in my bittorrent client" though, seems people in the US get hammered rather quickly.
Fair enough. I'm sure I could figure it out. But then, I'd rather spend that time playing SWTOR or BF3
And that gets back to one of the points: I don't give a shit about patronizing the artists that made those games and I would have pirated them if I could have. But I can't, so they got my money.
Like I told Catholic Scientist, if I could download a digital HD copy of a movie as easily as I can now torrent it, and the price would be reasonable, I'd stop downloading it for free immediately. If say, something like Netflix came along, where I had to pay 20 Euros per month, and I could download and watch any movie I like at any time I like in HD, I'd say goodbye to torrents or usenet in a heartbeat. And funnily enough, most people I know also feel this way.
Yeah... The answer here is not things like SOPA, Hollywood needs to get their own version of Steam where we can just pay at home to watch the movie at home. That'd be tits.
