Funnily enough, in the UK it is. The DVD thing is worse though - covered with copy protection

I couldn't live in other countries by now i think i would be an international criminal by their laws, with all the computer stuff ive done.

It's not illegal in the USA to copy DVDs and CDs for yourself. It's only illegal if you pass them on. People want to share what they have, and because people started calling this illegal, disc media is dying to On Demand titles. I can't remember the last time I wanted to spend $20-$30 to watch a 3 hour movie when I can watch it in HD for $5 On Demand, Netflix or Vudu.
Why do you think Blockbuster closed 90% of their stores?

disk media will still be alive for years to come. in the dvd sector its pretty much dead but how will software work if you have to download it. there are tons of people with slow internet and no computer skills to download software and burn the iso's to disks or do things like that.

Yeah, everyone does it..

Bad enough when we had to buy CDs of our old records and DVDs to replace VHS and now Blurays the same, what a total rip off

fatstarr4712d ago

thats not gonna happen this generation cause, lots of people have their movies and things backed up to a hdd, the only reason to get blue ray to me is for the new movies to see it in hd quality.

Sahil4712d ago

yeah, blue ray is only meant for the hd quality.
