    If there was a paid service that allowed me to download a file instead of having to buy a Blu-ray and rip it myself or be DRM attached to Amazon or something, I’d buy my movies for the higher quality than whatever odd torrent I find. The movie industry needs to do what steam has done. Make it more convenient to do it legally and people that have money will pay instead of stealing.

      They had that. It was called Netflix. Then they got greedy and everyone decided to have their own Netflix. Now piracy has gone up.
