Same crap, different toliet

The same people come on all the time to whine about this or that, who cares anymore? The people that want to pay will keep paying, the people that want to DL movies will continue doing so. Not more than two days go by on this site without some recycled discussion about file sharing/DRM/**AA. Maybe this site needs more tech news or stories not related to above subject(s).

Just my .02 dollars.

This is tech news.
There is no way I want to download these crap DRMed movies with/on my tech!

I *CAN* download any movie I wish, sometimes before it is released(actual DVD rips, not Cams)... but since most new(all?) movies suck, what would be the point?

Pay for DRMed, time limited movies in God knows what format or quality? Not even on YOUR computer friend!

Ya don't like these news articles, yet you take time to read *AND* post in them?

Legit bittorrent sites can work using DRM and proprietary players if there is incentive for people to upload the content. The more you upload, the less you pay for the content. Or maybe the more you upload, the longer you have to play the content. An idea would be to charge people based on the ratios they attain while on legit trackers. For example, users with a share ratio of 3 or above would get a 20% discount on the content they purchase. Users with high downloading stats pay so much per GB downloaded. I don't know. Just a thought. But it all takes flexibility, and the hollywood power brokers a looking to make as much profit as possible...definitely dark age mentalities.
