Seriously, this r bad.  I wonder how much the judge got, god knows they threw cash at the investigators.Â
Isn't the pirate party planning to field some candidates for some EU positions soon?
Re: Fuck - KarthXLR - 04-17-2009
Well, at least the site is still there. And there's still demonoid.
Re: Fuck - sarcasticsteve - 04-17-2009
My only light of hope is that according to Brokep, the site itself will not suffer any damage while the appeal is going through.
Re: Fuck - cannedpeahes - 04-17-2009
What the fuck is this shit.
This r very bad indeed, yes. They'll be coming for Demonoid next, if they can ever figure out who to investigate.

Well, TPB isn't going away, as soon as the case was announced the servers were relocated out of country, the internet is a hydra, you cut off one head and two grow in its place.
You can't legislate away the wave of new media and file sharing, its an oncoming tsunami, and media companies can do one of two things, surf on it (Valve & Apple), or attempt to sandbag their shoreline houses (RIAA/MPAA) even though its not going to do any good in the end.

3D is a pretty massive anti-piracy measure, which may or may not prove effective.

Are you referring to '3-D' films?
At some point you have to either un-3D them for home DVD...or pirates will just start buying 3-D glasses for home viewing.
Either that or I'd give it a few months before someone finds a way to take the raw video and compress the layers or do some other film editing trick to so its not "3-D"

I don't worry too much about whether or not the servers get taken down: these people are doing a service to me personally and to a lot of people on the internet, and doing it mostly selflessly, even though it's illegal. Now they're getting prosecuted for it to the tune of millions. It makes me uneasy, and it makes me feel slightly guilty for NOT using that service.

The studios are claiming that within a few years one in every three films will be 3D. Obviously, at least for the next few years, the home releases will be in the standard format but the implication is that the studios expect people to flock back to the mulitplexes. I personally don't think it's going to work, all sounds a bit gimmicky and people have already proved that they're willing to forego the big screen experience but early reports on Avatar suggest people haven't caught on to quite how groundbreaking it is.

I think the real question is *why* people have been going to the cinema less, is it the quality of the film's story, the special effects, competing forms of entertainment, the price, or a lackluster "theater" experience?
I would argue its a combination of all of the above, probably the largest being the quality of films (in all genres) and competing forms of entertainment. With only 24 hours in a day, one is limited on how much media/entertainment they can consume, and with more people using the internet and video games for entertainment it edges time off of things like television and movies. This could lead into a value ratio in that a theater gives you a much better experience on the whole than watching a bunch of stuff on youtube, but the cost associated with the theater makes is a lower priority unless the quality of the movie is such that you derive enough utility from it to justify the purchase of a ticket in favor of sitting at home and playing a game or web surfing.
Whether the 3-D wave will cause people to go back to the cinema remains to be seen, thus far the movies that have come out in 3-D...have they really made that much more money than a non-3D film of similar caliber?

</economist>
In addition to all the reasons Caff cites, which I concur are all contributing factors, I would argue that there is another factor at play, possibly more powerful.
Why did people go to movies back in the day? Social networking.
How do people social network nowadays? Via multitasking. Pull out the phone. Hit pause on the DVR (Tivo, nacht). Alt-Tab. Apple-Tab. E-mail. Blackberry. Facebook. Steam-messages. Forums.
How often do any of us sit in one place, in complete silence, and do one task for 90 minutes, without interruption? I don't know about ya'll, but these days I get antsy after 30 minutes of doing one single thing.
The primary use of multitasking these days is to see whether other people want to talk to us, whether we are at work, at home, on the road, or out on the town. You can't pause the movie in the theater, and it is socially discouraged to whip out your iphone/etc. and check your messages in the middle of the movie.
I think, given the choice, the prime demographic of moviegoers would rather fill in a movie around their social life than fill in their social life around a movie (that sucks 90% of the time). There is an easy thesis to be had here.
