You should use vpn account outside USA for such purposes. For example this vpn account located in Luxemburg, Europe. And f&ck off DMCA

A big fat plus one. It's unreal how slow the TV and movie industry have been to understand the realities of the internet. How about a la carte premium HD TV? Morons, the lot of them.

I was watching a DVD yesterday and they don't let you STOP the DVD while that FBI logo is on.
If I download [or rip] the full 8gb disc, do you know what I have to do? Burn it and put it in the DVD player. I can hit "Menu" immediately and watch what the hell I want to watch.

Also, the fees associated with a disc are almost negligible now. For an operation that prints thousands [if not millions] of discs a day, charging what you used to is a stupid idea.

You know what would be nice? If a movie studio recognized that the Internet is here and offered DRM-free downloads of H.264 for a reasonable fee - $2-8 depending on the release. And none of this "10 month release window" bullshit. Otherwise they'll just keep getting pirated and crying to the government to get more laws passed because they don't want to actually try to use the internet.

Actually that's a Canadian company with a presence in the US, so that follow the same laws ay other Canadian or US company would have to, they just happen to have a server in Luxembourg. SlickVPN is a US company as well and they have servers all over the world, but ultimately it still comes back to they (the VPN company) know who you are and will give that info to those legally entitled to it.

I'm currently using Fearless Mobility, they're in Sweden, NOT the USA, so shouldn't have a problem here.

Which country has the most censored internet? China or America? I do wonder.
