I am being sued for using the Google Play Store.

mram says...

Seriously, why doesn't Google help?

I would have directed the video to all app developers on Google, telling them that they are next to be sued, and to stop using the Google Play store as a result, since they all, apparently, are violating the patent. And that's a reason and vested interest in Google to assist.

How to Guide: Watch Netflix from Overseas with an Apple TV (Sift Talk Post)

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

That's true. I do torrent TV stuff a bit - but I actually really like Netflix on demand as a discovery service. I've found heaps of obscure TV and documentaries that I probably wouldn't have seen by torrenting - because with torrenting I usually am looking for a particular show already. Netflix is my favourite way to "watch TV" without a TV.

>> ^spoco2:

Wow, that's a lot of effort.
You could have just installed XBMC on your AppleTv, torrented what you want to watch and be done with it.
If they don't want to take our money, I'll find the easiest possible option to watch the created content. Currently torrenting tv shows and dropping them into xbmc gives a wonderfully easy to use exprience for myself and my wife.
As the US still seems to think the world revolves around their country, they'll keep losing out.
Why do the movie companies keep thinking I'm willing to pay $5 to download a time limited movie rental, which is more expensive than hiring a physical blu ray disc from the local store (although, who does that these days?). Even though there is no staff to pay to man the store, no handling costs, purely the cost of running the site and serving the data. Which is sweet FA.
Why do they think I'm willing to pay $2 per bloody episode of tv shows in a format that's locked into only being able to be played on apple products, when I can instead buy the entire thing on Blu Ray for $25?
It's insane pricing for one, and then just all out stupidity that they lock out entire countries altogether.
So I run XMBC, I torrent, and then I pay for physical copies of what I like. I won't be jumping through hoops to use a US service if they aren't going to provide it locally.

If Angry Birds were an 1980's/80's home computer game.

spoco2 says...

He got them free because he's on Android. All Angry bird games are free (ad supported) on Android.

You can pay 99c to get ad free versions of all of them if you want to use the *yuck spitoey* Amazon store... or just Angry birds Space so far in the Google Play store.


And I paid for the Ad Free Space version because the ads are annoying, I would pay the buck each for all of them ad free. They keep releasing updates, I keep playing them, I enjoy them greatly, why not?
