You hear that? That's the winds of change.

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

That is pretty damn amazing. I'm also thinking that Hulu is doing well with all of the banners they put on their released YouTube clips. Agree. Change is coming to online video.

Good for them.

Isn't it bit ironic that the video dag embedded in his comment is region blocked?

Absolutely bang on. Give people the ability to trial your stuff for free, as much as you like, and then buy a high quality, collected, easily viewed, nicely presented version of it.

Instaprofit.

It's how I use bittorrent. The number of films I have bought on DVD after downloading the torrent and discovering 'oooh, that's a good film' is quite high now. (Children of Men, Stardust, Die Hard 4.0, Ratatouille etc. etc.) My wife and I hardly ever get to go to the cinema any more due to getting people to look after the kids, and I don't buy movies sight unseen anymore (I did that with some movie, can't remember what, after a lot of online hooplah over how good it was, and was very disappointed)... so it works really well for us.

I'm not buying less, I'm actually buying more DVDs because of BT because it lets me know which movies are the ones to get without fear.
