Well if people are prepared to watch crap-quality filmed versions (and God only knows why, I'd rather pay the £6 and get the proper experience personally) then what can you do? You can't force people to have standards. I do however, still believe that it's up to film studios and the cinemas to protect the product, instead of relying on the Criminal Law to do it for them.

I have bought loads of DRM free music from Amazon and Play, I have it on my computer, mp3 player and phone, and I like it even more because I can buy just one track, rather than shelling out for an entire album on which I like maybe 1 or 2 songs. I've picked up some pretty old random music this way and the range is pretty good (IMO.)

I think Simon was getting at the fact that Amazon and Play downloads aren't great quality, not that I can tell the difference mind you...I can't tell the difference between a record, a tape and a CD mind you...Except a record gives some songs a little more life (Sgt. Peppers lonely hearts club band is much better on vinyl than on CD)

I don't like that album at all, but I can appreciate the quality of the LP. If you can tell the difference between vinyl and CD, you can tell the difference between poor mp3 and decent mp3 or lossless/WAV.

Exactly. I get my music from 7digital because it's cheapish and DRM-free. If only they would release Games and DVDs without DRM...
