I agree with @86 here.
Yes, now you know how it feels if you don’t live in the bloody US where everything is available!

Fuck Riaa!

Keep pirating everything – they deserve it. Then, lets go throw a few bombs into their office building, and finish the job.

Then everything can be free, artists can actually get paid fairly, and huge corporations don’t grab money and run with it.

I live in germany too. So i feel your pain

When the latest downloadable content comes available on XBox Live or PSNetwork, I can’t download it, unless I VPN stateside or access the content by illegal means. I have to live on base where there is only one ISP that the base will allow to provide service. With the exchange rate and the price of internet for crappy connection, I feel that I am to be sent here for 3 years, why not have the same access as we had in the states? I didn’t ask to be sent over here. It’s a byproduct of my enlistment. Am I asking for special priviledges. I don’t think so. I’m here to do a job and take care of my family, however i do feel that i’m entitled to enjoy some form of familiar entertainment as relaxation instead of watching the snow fall outside for hours on end.

It’s not special treatment…

I live on a US base in Germany…
Considered American Soil…
I pay US Taxes (that probably pay your unemployment :)…

I sat down yesterday after working 12 hours and I couldn’t direct download Mass Effect from xbox live…

I just want the same options that the guy flipping burgers in oklahoma has….

too much to ask?

@AAAAAAAAA
People assume your american because you know english better than 70% of america. Why your posting on a torrent forum of your troubles is beyond my simplistic mind.

@123
We all know the raping of japanese women rests in the hands of the japanese buisness men and tentacles.
Apparently you’ve never seen a hentai.

Troops should get certain perks cause their pay aint that great.

Here we go. American soldiers are dirty criminals. Not only do they invade foreign countries and kill their people, they are also illegal downloaders!

they’ve been doing this for awhile though. i know people on duty. and they use p2p n torrents. kind of stupid if you don’t know what to look for for legit and non tracked stuff. but using any p2p leaves open ports and access. especially when it could be used to gain information on the enemy. while the it’s n server admins. take restrictions off a certain person’s computer (ip) so they use high bandwidth to download porn lots of porn. lol i’ve heard the stories. but there are ways of getting around those blocks, but you’d get in trouble if you were caught.

I was in Korea for over 3 years, and while the instigating factor might well have been that I couldn’t see the latest Lost or House for months, once I started, everything was fair game. I still have over 8TB of music/games/movies that were torrented. The other 10 TB are somewhere in Iraq right now with the rest of my unit. :)

Good, I’m glad the MPAA did this.

We are going to need these guys down the line and the more PO’d they are the more likely they are to join us.

Will you join us ?

Currently I am over seas, and it sucks so much that we can’t get access to things that everyone else can in the states.

Morale drives are AWESOME! I was tdy in Romania, living out of their base dorms with 200 other airmen. They had signs outside of their doors offering hundreds of movies, music, psp games, pc games and more. Most of the time for free but you would have acouple guys that would sell his content or would want some of your movies that he didn’t have. But even it was cheap cheap cheap. Like 3 Ron = 1 US Dollar. You could get 20 movies from a guy for 15 Ron.

I also had a friend who had a drive with almost a hundred movies. I would get mine and share back and forth, then other military members would get their drives and it turned into a torrent in real life. I think we had 8 drives sharing overall.
