October 6, 200916 yr Put out by the SIIA: Software and Information Industry Association. It's public service announcement to convince youths not to share software. The end is bizarre as it goes from goofy to serious with a man who's in prison for using stolen bank account information to create ebay and paypal accounts in order to sell pirated software. So, how effective do you think this will be in detouring children from copying CDs? "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
October 6, 200916 yr Whats a floppy. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
October 6, 200916 yr Whats a floppy. An archaic form of digital storage which involved encoding bits magnetically on a portable spinning disk. The most common size was 1.44 megabytes.
October 6, 200916 yr You ruined his bad joke, congrats! Seriously, who still burns CDs/DVDs? Thumbdrive/external HDD or bust! Edited October 6, 200916 yr by Purkake
October 6, 200916 yr Seriously, who still burns CDs/DVDs? Thumbdrive/external HDD or bust! My thoughts exactly. A 2.5" pocket HDD can hold over 450 movies or 900 TV episodes. Why would you use a CD/DVD Disc? Edited October 6, 200916 yr by Hiro Protagonist
October 6, 200916 yr Not to mention the discs cost money, take up room and it take a while to burn them.
October 6, 200916 yr Is this the one that features a little cameo of the original AOL Neverwinter Nights? Think that's how I bumped into it the first time. There are none that are right, only strong of opinion. There are none that are wrong, only ignorant of facts
October 6, 200916 yr It's in the original one that Krezack posted. Edited October 6, 200916 yr by Purkake
October 6, 200916 yr A 2.5" pocket HDD can hold over 450 movies Actually, you can buy cheap 1 terabyte 2.5 inchers these days, so make that 1500 movies.
October 7, 200916 yr I can never work out if the industry is more worried about people copying for free by sharing, or selling the stuff. They seem desperately keen to push the organised crime angle, but I've yet to be convinced on that score. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

October 7, 200916 yr I just had another weird thought. If a kindly magician started making copies of things like BMWs then would he be arrested, if he didn't charge anything for it? "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
October 7, 200916 yr You're premise is too weird to consider. Change it to replicator and it might go somewhere.
October 7, 200916 yr So, how effective do you think this will be in detouring children from copying CDs? I suspect it will not be effective, if only because they concentrate on those selling pirated materials. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
October 7, 200916 yr Is this the one that features a little cameo of the original AOL Neverwinter Nights? Think that's how I bumped into it the first time. It's in the original one that Krezack posted. Yep, starts at 3:25... "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
