makes you almost pity the poor riaa and mpaa (and sorts) – they must hate technology for the masses
nah can’t pity the devil.
This is essentially equates to the same type of system Tivo has or wanted to introduce about 2 years ago. Only that the service would of been much more restricted due to licensing issues with their partners. Its funny because I remember the copyright goons blocked the device from market as if it would of harmed them. Now they have to contend with 3rd party products that don’t give a damn about their perceived rights.
It’s… beautiful. Have your way with me!
lol xbox360 look a like torrent set top boxes are these the new shit? I wouldn’t risk buying one just in case the RIAA make one and put a tracing chip inside it or something
