Cable talks
Meanwhile, the major studios are in talks with US cable company Comcast over plans to screen films on cable TV on the same day as they are released in cinemas. Comcast's Stephen Burke told a trade show in Las Vegas that subscribers could be charged between $30 to $50 (£15-£25) to watch a film release at home on its opening day in cinemas.
That's such bullshit. So instead of a shitty cam getting leaked onto the internet an sdtv-quality copy will be? :blink:
Oh hell I just F*cked something up with merge :dabs:
Oh well...:rolleyes:
Anyhow you know its because of Canada being a major source of pirated content now don't ya?

Everyone: It's Canada's fault!

For my son Stan
He saw the damn cartoon
And now he's off to join the Klan!
Liane: And my boy Eric once
Had my picture on his shelf
But now when I see him he tells me to fuck myself!
Sheila: Well, blame Canada
Everyone: Blame Canada
Sheila: It seems that everything's gone wrong
Since Canada came along
Everyone: Blame Canada
Blame Canada
Copy Guy: They're not even a real country anyway
Ms. McCormick: My son could've been a doctor or a lawyer rich and true,
Instead he burned up like a piggy on the barbecue
Everyone: Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire?
Or the doctors who allowed him to expire?
Sheila: heck no!
Everyone: Blame Canada
Blame Canada
Sheila: With all their hockey hullabaloo
Liane: And that bitch Anne Murray too
Everyone: Blame Canada
Shame on Canada
For...
The smut we must stop
The trash we must bash
The Laughter and fun
Must all be undone
We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before someone thinks of blaming uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus!!!!
Why wouldn't Canada make it illegal to film a movie in a theatre with a video camera?

This won't hurt Canada, It's will hurt Warnes bros.
Now if Comcast would do the screenings in HD then it would not be to bad. Just invite over enough friends to make up for the cost and have a good surround sound and tv and you are set.
Comcast is digging it's claws into everything. They are now doing onDemand movies the day of their dvd releases.
