"Ha! I also received this on Christmas, however I also got the actual game as well. I think my sister, who got me this movie, just thought I would like it since I like action games. Anyway, is it worth watching?"

"I think the reason that old movies can look so good is because they were filmed on actual film. Since film has no set resolution, the movies just need to be rescanned to upgrade to HD quality."

"> Basically, hold right-click drag left and let go = go back. Many mouse gesture programs/extensions also features "click gestures", or "rocker" gestures, which allow you to hold the right mouse button and click the left to go back, and vice versa for forward. No mouse movement required!"

"I sent them an email after posting my comment and here was the response: "Thank you for contacting us. This trial will only affect customers in our Greensboro Division. Hillsborough, NC is a part of the Raleigh Division and would not be impacted at this time." My guess is the "Greensboro Division" is starts somewhere around Burlington and goes west from there."

"> Third, I sometimes click ads with no intention of buying if I like the content of a site. While in the short term it is good to help out a website by clicking their ads, in the long term this would be bad. Let me explain, if everyone clicked on ads to help out the sites but had no intention of buying anything it would ultimately drive prices down due to a low click to buy ratio."

"I was thinking this would be a very creative to combat piracy. By providing this torrent they would be directly competing with other, illegal torrents of their show. It could generate revenue in much the same way Hulu does, by having ads baked in. Sure, you could easily skip them, but you can do that with a DVR as well. Furthermore, are you really going to take the time to get up and skip a thirty second ad? Also, the peer to peer nature of bittorrent would virtually eliminate all distribution costs with the exception of the initial seeding. What do you guys think? As far as I can tell, it is a feasible plan, the biggest hurdle would be getting the TV studios to go DRM free and actually embrace bittorrent."
