- aluhut 12y agoThis is the HD version: http://pdl.vimeocdn.com/44915/609/269043775.mp4?token2=1405377814_9f96571dfbaae8ff1a2b018a7dd8a2d0&aksessionid=8f3967070510e0a2 http://pdl.vimeocdn.com/44915/609/269043775.mp4?token2=14053...
- im_dario 12y agoShouldn't we play fair with them? Although you can use that link to download it (yep, it works), where is the point to don't keep it to ourselves? Heck, I understand we all want to see when we want because we have better things to do now or not enough time. Regardless, I don't think we should ruin from starters their commercial project. I mean, it's not even a DRM. Just a weak misleading protection layer from Vimeo for deterring little noobs that don't know how to use their browser's debug console. Let's give the creators some advantage before gaming the system.
- sp332 12y agoWell, downloading the video from Vimeo doesn't cost the project anything. And if I like the video, then I can support them by paying. I don't see any upside to taking on the risk myself. Also, if someone genuinely can't afford the price, they can still enjoy the video. That seems like a net win for society.
- im_dario 12y agoYes, you can download it and support them by paying later. I agree. But... I see no point into publishing the direct stream link. Although it's funny due what the movie is about, I think it creates some disadvantages for them. I hope they took in mind this and they don't feel threatened by this behavior.
- sp332 12y agoThe stream link will go down at the same time that the movie gets pulled from vimeo.
- im_dario 12y agoI know but it doesn't invalidate my point. No matter how long, more "leechers" are going to abuse the system instead of a few "geeks" with the knowledge. Sure, if the timespan is short, almost no damages will be taken. Unless it gets distributed through other networks. If they didn't expected this, they may be upset. Hey, even maybe this was the main purpose, to go viral. Who knows. I just wanted to share how I felt to see the stream link published.
- sp332 12y agoAh, I actually expected this to happen so I guess I wasn't affected the same way. If you check the pirate bay, you can find every mainstream movie no matter how much DRM there is on it. So it doesn't surprise me that a video posted online got ripped off already. Also, it's been proven in multiple studies that piracy doesn't hurt a project's bottom line, so I hope they're not too worried about that.
- aluhut 12y agoRipping a stream is not hacking. I did it through FlshGot. This is no science. It's just a rightclick. This is not some hidden elite treasure you need to hide here.
- Remiii 12y agoGood point.
- joeyspn 12y agoAgree... leave them make some money
- jdbernard 12y agoThat's hilarious, because from what I've seen so far in the first 30 minutes of the movie, the main characters would have no qualms about bypassing the protections. I'm hoping that the movie gets better, but so far it's espousing the teenage-wannabe-god version of being a hacker.
- opless 12y ago"Play fair" ? surely information wants to be free? :-)
- im_dario 12y agoI'm all in when there is somebody abusing the system as majors or big lobbies. I don't feel the same when it is smaller. That's why small producers' crowdfundings tend to work, because we appreciate the effort. Information wants to be free. True. It doesn't mean free-for-all. A little note aside the link saying: "hey, wouldn't be great to donate to them if we like it" would be fairer than just simply pasting the link.
