That new Tetris movie came out today I think. You might check that one out. The trailer makes it look like there was this whole Mission Impossible secret op to break into Russia and smuggle the game back across enemy lines and release it to the masses. 😂 Was it really that serious.

Surf Ninjas. Loved it as a kid. As an adult not so much.

You think the same is true with porn? Some day a director will release an eight hour directors cut with extended scenes and bloopers?

I imagine it's one of those odd jobs where it's hard to know how ppl get it. I used to work in a candy factory and always wondered where the candy taste testers applied for their position. Probably the same place where the ppl applied for the job to try out new toys. I've always wanted to know this as well.

It's actually cheaper. I'm currently buying up copies of animated movies because I have newborn nieces and nephews that will start watching them in the next couple of years. I pick up the discs on ebay used for $2-$5 on average. I checked Amazon and the same movies on Amazon are $3.99 to rent and $15-$20 to purchase. Physical media is cheaper and then you can just make digital copies for the kids to watch and keep the discs in a binder as backups.

From my understanding the digital code was to access a file that lived on the cloud and was owned by the production company. You never actually got the file to download. I could be wrong though.

The problem with ripping discs is once they stop making movies on disc and go completely digital you no longer have access to new movies unless you go the rental route which is what it seems these studios are wanting.

Downloading a pirated movie. I'm too paranoid to download movies from somebody. Big brother might be watching.

That's why I was asking about downloading movies vs downloading music. Downloading music is allowed but movies are not. Are they going to eventually make music the same way where music is basically just rented and listened to thru the media player of whatever platform you purchased it from and we will no longer be allowed to own any music files, movie files, video games, etc. Is this to be the future where you own nothing and only rent it until the platform you rented from or the creator decides they no longer want to rent it to you? Then you're SOL

Do you actually own a universal file though? Can you play it through windows media player or is it only playable through itunes approved player? I've never used iTunes so I'm unfamiliar. Amazon allows for downloads but it's downloaded to their app that you install on your device so it's still tied to Amazon. You can't play the downloaded movie through any other media player.

That's what I did. I don't buy any movies from Amazon anymore. Learned the hard way.
