That's a lot different from before where you said: quote: Dennis Benjamin There were several stores that were selling them. Oh well. Thanks for the clarification, but I would still be writing letters and making phone calls, especially to Universal and the MPAA.  |  IP: Logged Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 11-01-2007 04:16 PM                        Well, to be more specific - I was actually told they were being sold at the Kiosks in the Mall. Which are considered stores. Sorry for the confusion. My point was that you could go into the Mall to buy them. On the debate on whether it's DVD quality or not, check out this link, make sure you have the DIVX plug-in and Mozilla Firefox is being used: http://www.bedroommedia.com/watch.php?vid=6960&part=42951 [ 11-01-2007, 06:43 PM: Message edited by: Dennis Benjamin ]  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 청주시, 경북도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 11-01-2007 10:47 PM                     Then sue the people who own the kiosks!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 11-02-2007 12:36 AM                     I downloaded this out of curiosity and found something interesting. If you look carefully there is a vertical bounce to the image, so this doesn't look like a direct transfer or off of a DLP screen. But there are no cue marks...so what the hell? Why the bounce in the image??? The first reel change comes at about 16:15 to those following along at home for however long that link stays online.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-02-2007 12:40 AM                        That is definitely not DVD quality. Artifacts everywhere. Looks completely awful! It's almost as bad as over-the-air HDTV! However notice how fast it downloads. I can't really determine the file size, but it's pretty small. The DVD version would probably looks much better.  |  IP: Logged
