Bwahaha serves you right! I hope they get that other notorious movie pirate Jude too. Smack you guys with a couple thousand bucks so you can learn your lesson. |

This is too flawed to go anywhere, anyway. To nail the exact person who downloaded it would need a lot of proof. In people living with multiple people, there's no way they can pin one person. With Proxy's, your IP can be used by others. People can steal wifi. I am sure nothing will come of this.

I don't bother downloading movies, I just watch them on online streams. Since I never watch any film more than once and I have Netflix to watch the ones I need excellent quality for (you know, any movies that rely on special effects or whatever), it's less of a hassle for me. And less virus-y. That being said, I can't wait until the way we sell entertainment shifts to go with the flow of current technology, rather than fighting it with stupid shit like this. I guess it's a good thing I didn't watch the Hurt Locker until I rented it right when it came out on DVD, huh? Also, is it just me, or is the monetary basis for this claim pretty absurd? If only 5,000 people are being sued, that means the movie could have made, what, an extra $50,000 max? And that's assuming every single downloader would have bought a $10 ticket, which is an outrageous assumption to begin with. How in the world could that justify seeking more than $7.5 million in damages (since that's just the settlement fees)? It just doesn't make sense. |

I don't pirate movies either. Mostly because I'm lazy and they take too long for high quality esp since I just want to watch them once...

That movie thinks it is so important. I can only imagine how good that movie could have been if a man had directed it. |

I've downloaded about only 5 movies in my lifetime through that other method and have never gotten busted... It also helps when other users post comments saying if so-and-so torrent is being tracked by that company. That alone is a sign to steer clear of such torrent.

I have downloaded 2 movies in my life and it was because they were out of print titles unavailable to rent anywhere and were not streamed on any site. And seriously why risk getting fined torrenting something as well known as The Hurt Locker which probably was readily available for a dollar at a redbox when it first came out. |
