    Yeah, I’m not installing DRM to watch anything on any service. I’ll pirate, thanks very much.

      Or you could buy it legally. What we need is a way to keep a lot of the crime at bay while making sure people who take the time to buy blurays and DVDs can still have a legal home library

        Blu Ray and DVDs have DRM too.

              You don’t need there code to play blurays. All you need is the decryption keys. Don’t get me wrong, DRM is bad but I think blurays are no where near as bad as malware.

              Also we don’t have a lot of options.

                But we do.

                Share rips, encode in any way you want, enjoy.

                Support the artists by buying DVDs, merch, go to the cinema.

            From what I remember you have to set up some DRM stuff to play Blu-Ray in Linux also.

              I do not believe so. I use MakeMKV but that is not good practice as it is proprietary software. You can play Blurays with VLC but you need the decryption keys.

        Disney announced the end of physical media in Australia and New Zealand. Blackmarkets arise naturally when supply does not meet demand. It is preferable, morally and for society if people share media for free rather than fund organised crime as happens with most other black markets. I try and support creative industries where I can but piracy is the lesser evil in some cases.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
