Alibaba126 Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 wrong or ok hehe,IMO, it's not good of course, but movie tickets became so exspensive <_< . I go to cinemas less often now, I used to go like 3 times a week. Lateley i download movies on dvd quality from newsgroups once in a while and movies i can't find there or i think that are fun to watch in a cinema, I go to a ciname for that Quote
I LOVE ADRIANA Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 i said it's okay lol i've never done it before though... don't know how to. Quote
KingSupra Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 its good on my part but bad for the economy and what not Quote
chiva474128 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I think it's wrong to download movies. To those who said it was ok, if it were your work being distributed freely you would not mind, right? Think about it, as more people download movies off the net, the higher the ticket prices will get. Plus, as you get older the you realize that things like that are wrong. Quote
katgirl Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Yea but they still geting paid ALOT more then all of us who posted on this forum combined. Working for FREE never, they still making money. Just like those singers are still singing, actors still acting. Quote
chiva474128 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Entertainers get paid an astronomical amount of money, that's just the way is. Just because they are still getting paid does not make it right. Sorry, I think that's a poor excuse. It blows my mind to think that you people think it's ok to rip people off. I guess it's because you feel anonymous in cyberspace, because I would think that you guys would not walk into the Virgin Megastore, put a DVD under your shirt and walk out without paying. Wait, let me retract that. I forgot about the "Shoplifting" thread in General Talk. :evil: Quote

People gotta work 9-5 everyday while these compaines are paid to do what they enjoy doing and it aint no hard labour, Ive been on tv sets and movie sets, its nothing like being in a factory with chinese immigrants working and sweating for 8/hr.

Xfiler Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 If I saw a film which I downloaded and its good enough I will buy it, if not I will never see it again... Quote
Neo52285 Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 im a very legal person...i go to the movies and i buy my movies.... Quote
pukeachu Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 While I can empahtize with both sides of this "controversy", the fact is that no problem would exist if these record companies and movie moguls would agree to let these websites charge a small monthly fee(say $5)and then share in the royalites. Hate to be cynical, but I can't help but think that all this legal wrangling is aimed more at saving their grossly exorbiant lifestyles than preserving "artistic merit " of any kind. And as someone wrote previously, 70% of this crap that infests our cinemas every year ain't worth $6-$8 :evil: Just a music downloader personally; most of the downloaded flicks I've seen were of poor quality.

Guest Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 I have no problem with downloading movies, I do it all the time in fact. Quote
Guest quasicartes Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 Downloading kills your comp. It's as risky as unprotected sex. Quote
