@kkarhan @GhostOnTheHalfShell I'd happily pay €100 for a #DRM-free (or at least non - #RegionLock'd #bluray copy of #CyberSix (or even just a legal copy of the files)...

- I'd even want to properly #license a #WatchParty because I do think that those that worked on it should get (at least on paper) their residuals (even if it may just be a few cents out of hundreds if not thousands of Euros in #licensing)...

Like it's really frustrating when being honest is punished!

All this work for a niche cosplay, who remembers cybersix? -#cosplay #cosplayer #makeup #cybersix

It's just so fucking tiring, not to mention there is hardly any good content worth paying for on #Streaming or even #TV.

  • Shure @arte / #arte does good stuff and I tend to check in on @dw_innovation / #DWnews and their original content, but aside from some show like #MrRobot or #CyberSix I don't even want to track down a physical copy.
    • In the past I did more often import stuff like #DoctorWho for friends (because pre-#Brexit #UK made that easy and convenient and being 18+ doesn't cause issues with unrated content...

I'm happily paying full price for good tickets at a theater (instead of asking friends who come along if they can save a Euro or two with their Student Discount) because I believe #artists should not merely survive but thrive and be rewarded for their efforts.

  • And I think positive incentives are always good. I want good things and since we live under #capitalism, "Money (or rather the reciept of every transaction) is my ballout - EVERY SINGLE TIME!"

And I'm not even gonna pirate shit as a matter of principle!

  • Not for [the obviously] legal reasons...
Piracy is COMPLETELY justified: Louis tries NetFlix & remembers why

@GhostOnTheHalfShell You know, I've tried to help @F3715H get their hands on a legitimate copy of #CyberSix but the only search results are for #AppleTV in few regions.

  • Australia
  • New Zealand
  • USA
  • Mexico (English & Spanish)
  • Peru (Spanish)

And getting an Apple TV + a fast #VPN that isn't blocked by Apple + local #CreditCard with local billing address to pay for that shit is even more cumbersome and expensive than paying someone to buy it, ship it and pay customs for it.

  • On German Apple TV it doesn't even say "Sorry, we don't have that available" but literally claims it doesn't know it, which is obviously a lie as #Apple knows CyberSix.
    • They could've easily said "Content may not be available for licensing or due to lack of age rating"

"[...] In order to qualify, you MUST NOT charge admission for screenings. (If the screenings are part of a broader event, such as a convention, there must not be a separate fee for the screening.)
Film theaters wishing to offer a separate ticketed event should get in touch via the general contact form.
In the vast majority of cases, we can only grant permission within the United States and Canada. [...]"

@kkarhan yeah...

I shouldn't have to get a Canadian Aperzon Account, some Parcel Forwarding Service and then having to import either a Region A bluray player on top of that + paying shipping and customs just to get my hands on a legal copy of #CyberSix FFS!

Like: WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE SO FRIGGIN' COMPLICATED?

It's not like this is the "latest and hottest Franchise around"...

- Pretty shure TMS & NOA closed books on it over 15 years ago...
