    It's a HTC service moron, of course they aren't going to say "Hey competitor product, have a great deal on us!"

Just might be worth checking before starting to download multiple files........although even missing 10 films isn't going to break the bank!


    If you started to watch then your 48 hour countdown has begun. 1day = 24 hours plus 23hours

    Where is a non-illegal service using bit-torrent?

    Where is a non-illegal service using bit-torrent?



    That's not my point, my point is this

    If I download via bittorrent (or anything similar) then I get this:

    1. I don't need to use a bloaty proprietary piece of software to download it, yes, I need a torrent client but things like utorrent are very unobtrusive and small, compare utorrent with itunes...
    2. There are several clients that I can choose from to download it, I can even do it through the Opera browser, although their client needs some work.
    3. What I download does not have DRM, I can play it at any time that I want, as many times as I want and on as many devices as I want, I can play it on windows, linux, android and apple if I had one
    4. With a movie, I can choose to download the 700mb divx, which is sufficient for me, or, a higher quality one or even a lossless copy
    5. It's free, but that's my last concern, I'd settle for reasonable prices for the above



    People don't pirate just because it's free, sure, some people do (those people would never pay anyway), but many people, like me, pirate because no legal alternative is given which is as good as what the pirates offer. I don't buy physical products because they're not as flexible, I want it in digital format and I don't have the space to store them, I'm not into watching/playing/listening once and selling it, I like to keep a copy around but that doesn't need to be a physical copy and I want to actually own a copy, not rent a

    If you let companies get away with all of this DRM and proprietary software rubbish, they'll soon not allow you to play a file past your bedtime haha.

    If movies didn't have DRM then everyone would share their movies. If you can come up with an alternative to DRM that wouldn't let you share movies with all of your mates for free I'm sure you would make some money..

    Nobody really needs to pirate, it's just that people have gotten used to getting things gratis. You can join Lovefilm or Netflix for a small fee and get all of the movies you need on Blu-ray/streaming. If you can't afford that then you have problems!

    Yes, I've seen how "cool" you can be, creating another account to talk up your own deals:

    hotukdeals.com/dea…812

    Or maybe you are "cool" because the average temperature of your deals is -91 degrees? (edited)
