Nevertheless, displacement rates (the impact of piracy on legitimate sales) were found to be negligible or non-existent for music, books and games, while rates for films and TV were in line with previous digital piracy studies. Most interesting is the fact that the study found that illegal game downloads actually lead to an increase in legal purchases. The report concludes that tactics like video game microtransactions are proving effective in converting illegal users to paying users. The full report goes in-depth regarding potential factors influencing piracy and the challenges of accurately tracking its impact on legitimate sales, but the researchers ultimately conclude that there is no robust statistical evidence that illegal downloads reduce legal sales. That's big news, which makes it all the more troubling that the EU effectively buried it for two years. ]]> piracy eu studies downloads ec games movies books content https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:ce0babb6cff3/ 2017-08-08T21:36:44+00:00 https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/24ujzq/for_fans_of_the_movie_wargames_a_list_of_all_the/ jmFor fans of the movie WARGAMES: a list of all the nuclear war scenarios stored in the W.O.P.R. computer.

Now, we're aware that Sony may refer to this distribution method as piracy, but in this particular case, it may well prove to be the salvation of the motion picture industry. By freely offering the film online, millions of people will get to see it and decide for themselves if it has any redeeming qualities whatsoever - as opposed to nobody seeing it and the studios writing it off as a total loss. Theaters would be free from panic as our servers would become the target of any future vague threats (and we believe Hollywood will be most impressed with how resilient peer-to-peer distribution can be in the face of attacks). Most importantly, we would be defying intimidation, something the motion picture industry doesn't quite have a handle on, which is surprising considering how much they've relied upon it in the past. ]]> 2600 funny hackers security sony north-korea the-interview movies piracy https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:4b6d151055c0/ 2014-12-01T16:11:34+00:00 http://www.thehistoryblog.com/archives/33637 jmTwo years later, he heard from Lisa S., an assistant set designer on [the movie] Stuart Little. She had bought the painting for $500 from an antiques store in Pasadena specifically for the movie because she thought its cool elegance was perfectly suited for the Little’s New York City apartment. Lisa S. had tracked it down in another warehouse and purchased it from Sony just because she liked it so much. When she contacted Barki, she had no idea of the history of the painting hanging on her bedroom wall. After Barki visited the painting in person and confirmed its identity, Lisa sold it to a private collector. That collector has now been persuaded to sell it in Hungary. It will go up for auction at the Virag Judit Art Gallery in Budapest on December 13th with a starting price of 110,000 euros ($160,000).

The links are carefully hidden in standard DMCA takedown notices for popular movies and TV-shows. The silent attacks come from multiple Hollywood sources including Viacom, Paramount, Fox and Lionsgate and are being sent out by multiple anti-piracy outfits. Fox, with help from six-strikes monitoring company Dtecnet, asked Google to remove a link to TPB-AFK on Mechodownload. Paramount did the same with a link on the Warez.ag forums. Viacom sent at least two takedown requests targeting links to the Pirate Bay documentary on Mrworldpremiere and Rapidmoviez. Finally, Lionsgate jumped in by asking Google to remove a copy of TPB-AFK from a popular Pirate Bay proxy. ]]> funny inept hollywood lionsgate fox viacom paramount dtecnet tpb-afk piratebay piracy copyright movies google https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:c7d4d6967c00/ 2013-03-26T22:36:01+00:00 http://www.neomag.co.uk/art/anime-manga/news/1334/film4-presents-a-season-of-studio-ghibli-classics jm studio-ghibli film4 movies anime animation to-watch tv https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:250fbf8e35a6/ 2012-02-22T13:10:13+00:00 http://madeinireland.irishfilmboard.ie/ jm ifb ireland movies locations https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:ea8dff4117c1/ 2012-01-22T21:09:37+00:00 http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn21373-why-should-we-stop-online-piracy.html?full=true jm piracy new-scientist slate sopa filesharing dead-weight-loss economics music movies https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:47074ad8f905/ 2011-09-07T15:30:38+00:00 http://theabyssgazes.blogspot.com/2010/03/teal-and-orange-hollywood-please-stop.html jm via:eoin color design film movies palette graphics hollywood teal orange https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:612ca9b06263/ 2011-08-17T23:10:08+00:00 http://www.imdb.com/search/title?num_votes=5000,&sort=user_rating,desc jm tv-series movies rating imdb gaming ranks top-10 lists https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:d73e7f464d37/ 2011-07-26T15:56:07+00:00 http://www.studioarthur.co.uk/ jm movies babies funny via:niamh https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:7849e05505e4/ 2011-01-31T21:18:54+00:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyIZiB-T1Sk jm lady-on-the-rock statue dublin ireland video movies short-films documentary youtube memes plaster https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:333e8aeb65a9/ 2011-01-13T17:17:46+00:00 http://jimblackler.net/blog/?p=209 jm games puzzles quiz movies wikipedia https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:486b5247dfe5/ 2010-12-31T16:23:41+00:00 http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/327185403/the-2011-cricket-world-cup-a-documentary jm sush movies kickstarter funding documentaries cricket india https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:8819bb56908f/ 2010-04-29T09:51:57+00:00 http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/breaking/2010/0225/breaking69.html jm imro wtf cinema movies ireland shakedown https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:a5eaf539d547/ 2010-04-26T21:07:47+00:00 http://wiibrew.org/wiki/MPlayer_CE jm via:conoro mplayer video wii homebrew movies https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:e88316e5fced/ 2010-04-23T22:55:32+00:00 http://wiibrew.org/wiki/List_of_homebrew_applications jm mplayer homebrew wii mod video movies https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:c8972edf8b83/ 2010-01-08T12:10:26+00:00 http://www.runleiarun.com/lebowski/ jm via:waxy shakespeare writing humor lebowski movies parody funny https://pinboard.in/u:jm/b:ce72a8942046/
