TOP GEAR QUESTION

BBCA just started airing episodes from this spring's season, so I guess that's a 6 month lag.

yeah, it wouldn't work worth a crap for me, and the picture is less than stellar

Nope, armed suits actually came into campus with campus authorities and the dean and put the dude in cuffs. They wheeled out his computers and servers. I don't know if he was found guilty or not, but there's been people actually convicted in those suits. Again, if you feel like downloading I'm not going to try to talk you out of it, I just don't want to do it personally. Can I make that any clearer?

Connect your PC/Laptop to your TV, many video cards have basic video out (either S-video or Component) capabilities and you don't need special software to make it play videos externally on a TV display. Many newer laptops have video out for connecting to projectors, etc to do presentations. Just get the appropriate video cable for your system and an audio cable adapter to convert the 1/4" audio out from your video card to Right/Left in on your TV/Stereo, etc. No more difficult than connecting a video game console or video camera. Or download and burn the files to a CD as a DVD or a Video CD, many DVD players will play burned CD's and DVD's now.

That would take about 80' of cable run all through my house. Not really an option for me.

Thanks for the link P71, man you got some tough responses for just trying to help out. Time to go stretch the RX7s legs and work out the stress bro.

In reply to P71:

Indeed. If you intend to start a commercial, for-profit, top gear piracy ring I'd be worried too. Having enough computers and "servers" that they needed to be wheeled out should've been the hint.

Assuming you aren't sharing out a bunch of top 40 garbage and new action movies you aren't even on the radar. While the MPAA and RIAA seem to have endless lawyers just dying to sue the pants off you, if you read the news it generally doesn't have anything to do with what you were sharing. Assuming you were sharing anything at all.

I also had a high school buddy get sued (and lost) for the original Napster and Kazaa stuff. You might not be on their radar now, but it's a risk that is easily avoidable through other routes, so that's the choice I make.

You guys remind me a little of some car club guys I used to know, They all sped 5-10 over all the time under the impression that the cops had bigger fish to fry. Then they started getting tickets all the time and complaining about it like it wasn't anything wrong.

aussie,

I like that idea, I think I'll drive the 7 to work today (the P71 moved for the first time in 10 days yesterday ) I really like driving the 7 every chance I get.

You should alwaya run your piracy ring from a bout in international waters where noone can stop you from rebroadcasting baseball games with inplyed oral consent.
