rip off companies that rip off the consumer. it goes in a circle. someone has to stop the loop, might as well be the consumer. tell tom cruise to take a paycheck cut

Wait, so you are upset because big corporation make billions of dollars off consumers? Maybe if you got a JOB that payed enough you coud buy what your heart desires.

Why should Tom Cruise (or any actor/artist/athelete) take a pay cut? They earned what they made - they draw the crowds which draw the dollars...do you have any concept of economics?:conf:

some obvious misinformation here.

HD-DVD and Blu-Ray use the same DRM scheme known as AACS. the processing key works on both formats.

on a side note....anyone notice the link i provided above with 20k+ diggs is gone? i thought they stopped deleting the articles? wtf

your a moron. the reason for this rebellion has NOTHING to do with economics. it has to do with customer choice and the BETAMAX decision. this also has a lot more impact than you realize.

ever hear of people copying vhs as a backup cause vhs do wear out? hmm..i think you have. well corporations (well more like the MPAA and RIAA) have lobbied to make this illegal! you cant LEGALLY copy a dvd for even backup purposes. also DRM restricts what sort of players you can put your music or video on. AND this also makes hardware manufacturers liable for creating a device that circumvents copyright protections. you may think that these copyright protections are good but you as an uninformed consumer have no idea. its the music and movie industries way of calling EVERYONE a criminal even if they arent. do you like that? you really need to do some research before you start calling people cheap or not willing to pay for content.

great example...how much does it actually cost to produce a cd. ALL costs included? $.05USD. yes thats right FIVE CENTS!!! how much of those cd sales go to the artist? approximately the same. you do the math.

Yes i have because "tape" wears out as oppose to DVDs which, if kept in their cases and not scratched DO NOT. And if you really NEED a backup buy 2...they are friggen cheap.

More like YOU are the elitist that feels entitled to break the law. Get a job and stop whining like a little bitch...its only little tech geeks that piss and moan about this ...i own 2 copies of Goodfellas in the event one gets messed up. Do the same and you will find you have more free time to bitch and moan about how i once ed your girl.
