1/17 Just popping back up for a minute - it's been a very busy week. Unlike in the past they really made us work this time round..
It hasn't been a good week for big content: their first trial against a BitTorrent site tracker (OiNK) in the UK resulted in a not guilty verdict, the French authority in charge of disconnecting people from the Internet for copyright infringement has been found guilty of copyright infringement themselves and the online music price fixing case against the RIAA label has been reinstated.
And, after all the crying about losing money to piracy, guess what happened - revenue from movie theaters is up 10% in 2009 over 2008 despite the financial crisis. So, dare I ask if we really need to have three strikes, laws against camcording, etc. if people still spend their hard earned dollar on movie tickets despite the latest CAM release never being too far away?
Remember the HD-DVD/DVD combo discs? Well, they're back, almost... instead of the now defunct HD-DVD side they simply sport a Blu-ray side.
