Lets just hope the ISPs are not as STUPID as we THINK they are.

Just say NO to SKMM, they cant arrest the ISP, can they?

Correct me if I am wrong but since when the FTA, RIAA and MPAA has anything to do with what happens outside their jurisdiction?
*
Because the members of RIAA & MPAA sell their products here in Malaysia.
So they pressure their government in their FTA with Malaysia.

Made sense, but not a very good article. Writer did not realize that the biggest problem is that much of the material is not available in the country at all, or that only inferior version of a material is available in the country, and material not coming in fast enough. For example, we were the last to get Survivor I, which is filmed in Malaysia itself. Singapore got to watch it days after it was released, we needed to wait over a month after Singapore's airing of the final episode before it started in Malaysia. Also, Futurama already entered season 6. TV3 only aired up to Season 5 and have shown no intention to pick up season 6. And did I mention that many shows aired in Malaysia apparently have the "PAL Speedup" problem? Which can be avoided by pulling the film up to NTSC first before pulling it back down to PAL? I come to realize this while watching VOD on UniFi and comparing it to a R1 DVD from my collection playing back at the same time.

And my last example, Mythbusters is only available in Malaysia in SD. People who want it in HD are given the finger since it Discovery HD is not available here- only Discovery World HD.

Education is not good enough. We also need to make the content that people want available in the country legally and at affordable prices, and at a timely manner. And do it properly.

Deprivation results only in anger.

Not to mention starting a series and then never continue or conclude it.
I'm still waiting for the last few seasons of Star Trek Voyager, Enterprise, the continuation of Chuck, Burn Notice etc.
Then also, you have shows like Two and a Half Men that's screened at 1.30AM and yet so censored that some episodes aren't funny anymore.

So, what solution but to download?

TV3 got screen Season 5 of Futurama??
I only watched the original 4 seasons.

@RAMChYLD, Let's not forget TV3's butchering of film to fit a two hour film into a two hour movie slot with advertisements.

ps. Futurama's back!

It's on Assteruk sad.gif

I refuse to sign back up until they bring in the channel I've been asking for for the last three years, and bring back BBC Entertainment. I already made it clear to them: no Doctor Who and Red Dwarf, no talk!

No Astro here too.
Only download option.

They don't offer high speed for no reason. Look at Comcast Commercials.

Even the girl talks about downloading movies and how her connection is twice as fast as UVerse VDSL.

That spaghetti monsta...sure is a genius.

Ya! But she's probably referring to legal downloads.

But then again, we CAN"T get legal downloads.
Hell, even some Youtube can't be watched here.
Hulu anyone?

Well she never said anything about original either so that's something we can't argue.

Anyway, why would you download a movie on a PC instead or your TV STB if it was through legal ways?
If it was a legal rental service you won't be doing it on your PC. It's either a BlueRay rental or on the home media.
