steffyweffy is talking sh*t. if pirates can make a profit at five quid a disc, so can distributors.
they only cost 20 pence each. buy em in bulk and its even less.
the dvd format needs a serious overhall it has to be said. if you cant beat em, join em, as knock off nigels are a market force to be reconed with. if real dvds were say seven quid each, why buy a knocked off version.
Pressure needs to be put on the law to stop this, or studios should start doing like some games companies and offering to sell direct for lower prices. Shops
It's a tough industry to work in, so we should look after it. In anycase, they only get 10% from DVD sales. I worked in the games industry, and our company only got $10 out of the $60 price tag a game is sold for in the shops, the shops take the biggest cut, which is why they can afford to sell stuff in the sales and still make money. When you don't buy, you make studios suffer, not the shops as they will sell something else.
ok thats reasonable, so when disney sell on the internet a dvd at £1(10% of the full price) and 50p each on top for overheads(i know its quite a lot but they deserve it), then i will buy.
Sure don't buy crap movies, but PIXAR and other great film makers do their best and put alot of hard work in, so buy the films when they are bargains, but buy them if you love them, and give these people their pay. Sure the fat cats at the top make millions, but by pirating films, they don't suffer, only the movies will and the artists who work so hard to make their movies.
The point is, if people pirate films, then studios, will not be able to continue to spend massive budgets over several years to produce the best movies, and eventually people will not make films because there will be no money. I know film makers who can't get budgets, and if studios won't make money in the first place, they won't give anyone money to make movies.
Heh.... "why settle for second best?".... heres a fairly plausible reason, £15 for a film or £8 to the cinema.
What constitutes a ripoff exactly?
Oh, and to those beleiving it (I dont beleive you exist tbqh) but "10110101" v "10110101". 1 of those is a rip, the other has the MPAAs sighn of approval, guess which is which?
Tip: Get DVD rips or, better yet, blue ray rips. Cams (Ones recorded by camera) are often mediocre quality at best. Personally I'd recommend getting a 90min movie at approx 1.2-1.6Gb. 700mb well encoded ones are good, but I'd only rate as "Ok", which is fine if you're not overly enthusiastic about it.
Let's all take advice from a rat that's quite obviously on some form of A-class drug, I mean, take a look at his wavy TV! Obvious user. Still, at least a Rat is a more fitting guise for the scum from FACT to use to spread their intimidation.
Don't get it. Why are they telling us the quality is crap when we already know.After all we downloaded them didn't we? Like being in a thunderstorm and someone telling you they think it's raining!
If you know what you are doing you should never get a bad film.
its these kinda adverts that make small children pick on som1 at skl called nigel and sing the song all the tym, when they dont prob even kno wat there tlkin about, and furthermore there are a lot of films not worth paying £15 for, espically when ur gonna watch it lyk once
shut it smiti07, yea. Piracy is done by the seller not the buyer. If Nigel wants to buy a pirate DVD, nothing wrong with that, it is his money, yea. If Nigel wants to sell a pirate DVD, than you have a point.
Everything he says is true. Don't be a Knock-Off Nigel, get an unlimited card instead, it's infinitely better & costs less, & you give some money to the people who made the films, not dodgy dave from the pub.
No one likes poor quality pirated dvd's, that's why I get dvdrips :D

it aint rocket science, its a simple equation. pay through the nose for the real thing or save two thirds of the price for a knock off version.
make the diference a matter of say two or three quid and the pirates are priced out of the market... no brainer.
oh yeah, 1 film sells on five or six formats, dvd is but one format, so dont feel sorry for distributors as their revenue is massive ok.
