I think as long as you also buy the movie when it comes then I dont have any particular problem with you downloading it.

I don't think its justifying crime. I'm just saying if you've seen the movie upwards of five times and duh your gonna buy the dvd, if its not available to you in theaters anymore you should be able to download a mildly crappy copy to tide you over.

Hmm I've seen the movie 5 times bought 7 extra tickets so lets see I've seen matinees and night shows so we'll say an average of 7 bucks a pop, 7x12 84 dollars? I think that buys me a crap copy for 3 months till the dvd comes out.

There's a near DVD copy floating around out there. How do I know? Because I have it.

I've seen Serenity 15 times. I'll buy probably 10 copies of the DVD for various people. Since I can't see it at the cinema anymore, I'm using the download to tide me over till the DVD comes out.

Exactly. I need something to tide me over too.
The nearest theater to me that is still playing Serenity is an hour and a half away. These two or three weeks I really can't afford the gas to go up there for 6th and 7th viewings.
But I'll be all over that dvd the day it comes out.

I downloaded "Team America, World Police."

Then when the movie came out, I bought it (it was only fair).

Does that make me a criminal? Technically yes. But did I do harm? Nope.

I paid to go see it at the cinema, but the series I downloaded. I had no idea of the history of the show at the time, and I'll probably go get the DVDs just to send the right economic messages.

But if I hadn't been for file-sharing, I would never have seen the series in the first place.. It's a double-edged sword.

Yep, I was never around Friday nights when Firefly was on, and also the ads made it look really, really stupid. I didn't watch it until after it had been cancelled. My then-boyfriend-now-husband downloaded the episodes and forced me to watch them (and am I ever glad he did). I've bought the DVD and showed it to so many other people, many of whom bought their own copies. Definitely a double-edged sword.

I am sorry, I don't follow. :bleary looks at clock:

Do you mean copyright? That sort of thing? Far as I know, no, no guideline. But as long it's not commerical use, it should be fine. Now if you do a drawing from a FF/S image, then yes, you can do with it what you will, commerical or not.

I don't claim the images and all, just the art.

Is that what you're talking about?
