Most of my 1080p are better quality than scene rips, and average about 2 - 2.5 Gb. BAD LUCK YOU TERRIBLE PIRATES.

lolwut.

2GB 1080p is teh bad son.

4.5GB 720P is the sweet spot for me.

LoL nope, only if you're a retard at encoding.

I'm a retard at encoding, but I don't encode them.
Jonty knows what I'm talk'n 'bout.


Example:

Spoiler :

-- Forum seems to be forcing size limit. Right click -> View Image --

6.55Gb 720p of The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus that I got at xLan.


1.92Gb 1080p of Gamer, obtained soon after xLan through sneakernet.
(downsized to fit my tiny screen :<)


I have a better example of Inception, but the img export skews the image, and windows screengrab is too lossy.

Conclusion: most things people think are good, are generally a waste of storage space. The scene used to be a place for quality. Now it's a fucking joke.

Can fit a whole 360 more p's into a file under a third the size.
Can fit BETTER quality into a file a tenth of the size of one with all the p's.

Why not do it?

I hear one keyframe per minute is pretty sweet brah.

To me, that image of Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus looks worlds better. It's clean, crisp and details show up easily, especially in textiles.

That image of Gamer looks fuzzy, colours bleed into each other and the over all colour seems a little washed. Don't forget the audio would've been HEAVILY compressed as well to fit it inside of 2GB.

4.5GB 720P kthanx.

Also, I'm imagining as soon as you hit a black screen, giant pixels start dancing in that Gamer rip you have there.

[dirtyape]

Nice to see you still don't read posts. I even said I don't use torrents. Dumbass.

Yet you proclaim that other people are doing it wrong, and now you admit you have no idea what you are talking about. And you call me a dumbass for correcting you. Derp

And then you neg rep me for pointing it out

Good to see you still don't read posts and just reply to people you have something against. Still an idiot. Will be waiting for your awesome neg back.

boo hoo hurt your feelings huh? roffles - try not to be a douch in future then

Yeah, I didn't really choose the best spot for the Gamer rip.
Audio is fine. As movies have become higher quality, the sound remains basically the same. The screen size has become bigger to accomodate the higher resolution, which adds to the file size. But the movie is still only ~2 hours long. Sound is basically the same, and we now have better codecs.

I can't really prove shit with screenshots. I'd have to give you the movie. BUT THAT WOULD BE PIRACY HOHO

The prophet Hori was right.

Yups, I've successfully derailed a thread about legalities into encoder settings.

LOL you are a dumbass, I never said using torrents was wrong either, I simply said I don't use torrents. I'm quite happy with ddl and getting files in 15-20mins. Saying hes doing it wrong for getting files in 2 days compared to 15mins or even an hour for 4gb files, yea I think im correct.

Since when did giving neg rep mean someones feelings were hurt.......... Dumbass.

[Retardobot]

The amount of times you seem to be spewing 'dumbass' is a testament to your hurt feelings.

I'd imagine.

Using Dumbass twice means im severely torn up inside, so much im crying. Wouldn't be pointing out the fact he actually is right.

I just thought it was hilarious that one of the dumber forum members was calling the most intelligent member dumbarse.

OH GOD THIS THREAD

[Virus.]

Back towards topic...

I'm going to carry on pirating. So will you, because we're normal people like everyone else who is upset with shit like this happening. If they take down one site I'll use another. Whatever happens we'll all find a way because that's how the world has changed. It's up to the governement and the large corporations to find a way to allow for the worlds current culture of copying and free usage to flourish without forcing us into "illegal" activites, becuse, fuck, original creators still seem to make a shitload even when their content is used without their permission.

[Zarkov]

Haha.

Oh dear, comprehension fail? I said "doing it wrong". So far you have demonstrated all the things you accuse me off. I wonder what personality disorder you have...

[CSfaith]

The 2 days thing on torrent is right though.

Most ISPs shape torrent traffic even when they say they dont. But that's moot now due to the latest 3 strikes bs and you shouldn't be using public trackers.

Torrent movies @ 2 MB / sec = win - Thanks telecom for mty epic DSl connection.

Then on my gaming connection - 700kbs max rate still is even rather quick, none of this 2 day stuff heh

[O-L-W-A-G]

Easy, peasy... and yes, that's to NZ.

 Would like to see screenshots of those peers

Who said anything about a 1080 movie? Did you just throw that in now because I told you I can get a movie in 15mins and you can't?

1gb movie > 15mins
4gb movie > 1hr
20gb 1080 movie > 5hours

I never get 1080 movies as I have no issues watching "normal" quality, I have no requirements for HD. 43" TV in the lounge and only a 32" in my room 1gb for a movie is perfectly fine, and if I really feel the need for top quality 4gb is more than enough.

So 2 days, yup you are doing it wrong.

 Still not sure where you got 2 days from

TS......... If you think only shit quality 1gb movies come in TS you have no idea. Nothing wrong with dvd rip mkv files for quality. Especially if you are only watching them on an avg size tv like a 32". Maybe you should hunt around instead of using shit filesharing sites that limit your download cap and the time before you can download another file. I was going to pm you some places but you seem dead set on trying to prove me wrong and calling me a liar, so can't be bothered.

I have an 80gb cap btw.



Nice to see you still don't read posts. I even said I don't use torrents. Dumbass.

TS or barely any better, 4:3 ratio ugh.

I vote for bell.

Also, what the fuck 20gb 1080p movies!? The fuck are you guys getting your bullshit from?
Most of my 1080p are better quality than scene rips, and average about 2 - 2.5 Gb. BAD LUCK YOU TERRIBLE PIRATES.

And like the other pyro, I don't even care. I'll watch an old school 700Mb avi file happily (provided it was a dvd rip).

 10gb is much better, can't tell the slight difference (and 20 would use 2/5 of my cap). Take your preference but for reasons previously stated I would rather download 2 good movies and see 1-3 in cinemas than downloading 20 crappies.

 My point was this would continue until a decent service comes along, yet this thread came to the torrents vs warez.

Fibre to the door + New cable to US will be epic sauce.

[Pyromanik]

he actually is right.

Wasn't so hard, was it?

Bitches don't know about the early days.

Sure don't. Ape seems to get a rough stick of it these days :<

Still not sure where you got 2 days from

err...

Spoiler :

I'd much rather pay 15$ a month for movies than take 2 days to torrent or warez a movie on NZ's great international traffic speeds and/or pay for a seed box.

Still 7 gigs too big. I can get 3-4 movies in the space it takes you to get 1. But whatever. If you're happy wasting storage and bandwidth (and spending 2 days to do such), who am I to say it's wrong?

My point was this would continue until a decent service comes along, yet this thread came to the torrents vs warez.

No it won't. It'll continue long after a service as such comes along too. But a service such as that would legitimise this method of distribution... we can't have that. All internet distribution is piracy, and needs to be punished.

Also, torrents vs warez?
How young are you? Because that shit doesn't even make sense.
warez is just an old school slang for pirated data. Torrents are just a method of obtaining such data. They are in no way able to 'vs' each other.
