    Whart is probably going to kill me for this one. I just started learning the art of the bit torrent for TV shows I've missed. Now I hear I can download full length screener copies of movies...... Will I still be able to sleep at night?

    If they do to you what they did to the guy that downloaded "The Hulk," you will go to sleep $500,000 lighter!

    I was just commenting on my sleeping experiences and have no actual knowledge concerning movie downloads.

    IIRC, actually the guy uploaded the movie (not downloaded). He obtained a copy (think it was some film festival judge) early and put it up online (uploaded on p2p).
    That's quite a bit more than just downloading a movie.

    I sleep just fine as well, and have lots of TV shows I wouldn't get anyways because I'm in Canuckistan ...

    ZORRO may be right. I am not sure if he downed it or upped it.

    Strange thing I learned at Quake on 2005, plenty of people were sharing copies of the Dukes of Hazard movie among other new films on the LAN network, no one made a fuss about it. One person was found with a crap load of child porn & the Grapevine Police Dept. escorted him out of the convention center hard drive confiscated & all. I never found out what happened to him. Texas doesn’t take kindly to that sort thing.

    How else am I supposed to get F1 ITV? Or Top Gear?(I have the full seasons of both, btw) Or the latest movies? I would much rather use my big screen at home. Or my friends projector...
