    Point was, find 720p or 1080i versions of Daily Show in your respective trackers. Though I doubt they are there. Making that assumption, I'm just huffing and puffing.

    There is actually quite a few of them. SCC has probably all 720p encodes of the show there have been this year from the scene, HDBits has even more of 1080i caps, there are also many 720p releases on usenet. though they are not uploaded on the daily basis in these places, since scene doesn't release HD version every day if the nfo databases sites are right... so you might be better off searching for some other place than torrents/scene

    //seems like hdbits is the place, 93 1080i caps this year so far...

    I'm a usenet user, so I know what's available on there, just the pointless XVID crap

    I have a feeling people are voting the third option because they like how it was worded, or also to spite me. I thought I made this public so that I could see who voted, but I goofed something. I would have harassed you, so I guess... count your blessings?

    I voted for that because I like my blocks.

    On a serious note, I don't have an HD screen, so 700/1400 MB rips suit me just fine video and sound quality-wise, and also let me store more movies (I keep the ones I liked in case I ever want to watch them again).

    PS: please don't harass me

    press to number of votes on any option and you see who voted what option.

    Edit: and BTW anon SD x264 doesn't take up more space than XviD, it's just far higher quality and less blocky at same size, + black/dark is actually visible, unlike the XviD equivalent. Picture yourself a dark 700MB horror movie in XviD, then know that almost all of the annoying artifacts are gone if it was X264.

    a quick search leads me believe that it's only uploaded in SD

    But it isn't harassment, for serious the first option was for you. You could get even more content at smaller file sizes and at better quality. I don't have to harass you to know that you would truly enjoy it. For instance, progressing towards this direction https://filesharingtalk.com/nzbs/movies/x264sd/

    That's what I mean, I can't click anything on it. No links, no hovertext, I get squat.

    Thanks for searching, it's confirming my suspicion
