Pirated vs. Legal DVD, The Winner Is…

Anti-Piracy

Tags: ,

February 18, 2010, by EL 13

We’ve said it many times before, if the movie industry wants to stop piracy it should offer a superior product compared to pirated films. Right now, they are treating their paying customers as criminals while those who download illegally get to enjoy a movie without hassles.

Having to watch numerous warnings, ads and digital restrictions is not helping to compete with the movies that are available on BitTorrent and other file-sharing networks.

The image linked below says it all.

    This is why I always dowload my files from emule and bittorrent and occasionally use file downloading sites. I also like to share my collection with others. Don’t get me wrong, I have purchased my share of content though. I have purchased over 500 vhs when they were popular 120 dvd’s, and over 100 cd’s. They are collecting dust in various parts of the house and garage. I just use my pc now for tv and video.

    I usually rip my DVDs, strip all the nonsense, and stream them.

    But yes, all that bullshit is so unnecessary. Why do we need to see “DO NOT PIRATE LOL” when we already purchased the DVD? It doesn’t make any sense. If anything, the guys who pirate/upload movies should be the ones to add the warnings..

    The same is true for the gaming industry with all their crappy DRM.
