To be fair, I have had .avi that will not play, and some .mkv that will.

- 480p or 720p will work and look mighty fine on the playbook. No need to go up to 1080p, its a total waste of storage space in such a tiny screen, unless you are planning on plugging it to a 40"+ tv.04-25-11 02:40 AMLike 0

Therefore, your argument is invalid...thief.Last edited by NamelessLiar; 04-25-11 at 07:08 AM.
04-25-11 07:03 AMLike 0 - Your logic is flawed. Jaywalking and Speeding are statutory offenses and merely victimless crimes (i.e., only illegal because the statute says it is illegal and not because it harms any individual) just like eating peanuts and walking backwards on a public sidewalk in New York. Stealing has a victim and is based on centuries of common law criminalizing it.
Therefore, your argument is invalid...thief.
Also, don't push your ideals onto people. No one enjoys that.
Anyways, don't act like such a saint when you have nothing to back up your claim. I am sure you've done many worse things in your life.
Finally, no one asked you about your opinion on the situation. If someone wanted to know your opinion on the matter, they would have made a thread on said subject. So if you are not going to post helpful advice on OP's question, please don't post at all. No one wants to waste their time reading an unhelpful, useless, insulting post.frannip likes this.04-25-11 10:00 PMLike 1 - Your logic is flawed.

But either way, downloading illegal content is a whole different thing than speeding. However, speeding produces more harm than downloading illegal content, but just because you havent killed a whole family in a car accident doesnt mean it is harmless.
Anyways, i wouldnt allow discussions like that in a forum like this one, the sites discussed contain more warez content than "open" content. Even if you dont plan on downloading illegal stuff, others may be prone to do so when led to such sites. Which is usually why its considered "bad", even when not posting any links at all.Last edited by gbsn; 04-25-11 at 10:27 PM.

- Dudes, we have no general speed limit in Germany, so please spare me with accident figures from the US. I drive speeds between 150 and 190 mph on a regular basis, even our family truck does 169 mph and sometimes I even drive over 220 mph if traffic permits. This is safer than traveling at 70-80 mph from Miami to Fort Lauderdale, where drivers don't even seem to know what a turn signal is supposed to be used for. Speed doesn't kill...the driver does, keep that in mind.
Back to topic: You guys can argue about stealing media content as much as you want but it still remains stealing. Especially grown/adult people have NO excuse whatsoever to do that, unless of course you live on another planet and never have heard of pirated media. No, those latest movies available as torrents are NOT legal content and playing dumb may help your conscience, if you have one or your case in court but the truth is: Unless you guys are really ********, you know exactly what you are doing. I have friends who publish iOS apps and one is even working for a large movie studio. Their job(s) are maintained by paying customers, not by thieves. You don't like the price tag of certain media content? Simple solution: Stay away from it. Do you steal a Ferrari because it is too expensive for you and you can't afford it? Sorry for being that blunt but some people actually live from legal media content/apps sales.04-25-11 11:17 PMLike 0 -
Does this sound right to you?
What you are basically saying is: You ignore the law. Where is your limit doing that? Killing somebody or "just" stealing his car?
Lame excuse and extremely mature.04-25-11 11:22 PMLike 0 - Well at least you are blunt enough to tell us "yes, I'm a thief". I hope you don't mind if you get punished when/if they catch you. From time to time people get caught and you never know if you are going to be next. Thats actually the thrill of being a thief, you never think they catch you or actually care...until they do.04-25-11 11:27 PMLike 0
- Yeah, I always try to get my money legally from people but if they don't want to give it to me, I just take it from them.

I just stream most movies or rip them myself. i need to compress the **** out of my blue ray rips as most movies are about 20-30gb. a little too big for the playbook.Last edited by 8900Freak; 04-26-11 at 10:02 AM.

If they want to charge me 25 dollars on an MP3 player and most forms of recordable media, that is price we pay, or don't, as the case may be.
Germany does have speed limits.
Speed does kill. Cause a lousy driver going at 3 mph wouldn't do much damage, same guy doing 150, a different story. Speed doesn't kill?! Haha
Copyright Board said uploading or distributing copyrighted works online appeared to be prohibited under current Canadian law.
However, the country's copyright law does allow making a copy for personal use and does not address the source of that copy or whether the original has to be an authorized or noninfringing version, the board said.
Under those laws, certain media are designated as appropriate for making personal copies of music, and producers pay a per-unit fee into a pool designed to compensate musicians and songwriters. Most audio tapes and CDs, and now MP3 players, are included in that category. Other mediums, such as DVDs, are not deemed appropriate for personal copying.
