Cathy Is DRM-free!!!

[Teaflax]

Here I was, just about ready to hit the purchase button, when I realized that this was not another DRM-free file.

What gives? Was the experiment a failure? Is this a control test?

Hmph. I was all excited about watching this on my PSP tonight...

[torgosPizza]

Yes.

Also, the mp3 is provided, in case you want to sync it up yourself.

I noticed that a pirated version appeared quickly on a certain type of file posting protocol.  But that's no different from any rifftrax release.

I guess sales must have been down as well.   Bummer.

Who pirated it, and what does he value so that I can destroy it before his eyes?

Unfortunately, that is inevitable.

But if you can PM me in the direction of the torrent, I can ban the user that bought it.

No wasn't a torrent actually.  I sent you a PM explaining anyhow.

Can someone find the guilty party and send them my way?

Downloading the file within Divx takes me about 12 tries to get a complete download.   It will download 7%, then fail.   another 5%, then another failure.   Still only at 53%.........   

[torgosPizza]

Really? I can say I've never had a problem downloading from them.. strange..

And there were no issues with the short we released last week, right? Maybe DivX is having some tech issues.

So the answer is no more DRM free?

I was so excited to be able to watch this on my iPhone.

I had only previously purchased one riff trax and it was such a pain in the ass to synch that I didn't bother doing it again until the DIVXX came out, which was even more of a pain in the ass, and I never got it to work right on my Mac.

The DRM free short was awesome.  Took about 10 seconds to get into iTunes and on my iPhone.

Seriously, don't stop doing DRM free versions.  It's costing sales by NOT doing them.

[RoninFox]

If piracy is keeping us from DRM free stuff there is only one solution.


I'm oiling up my whosits!


(by the way, you find some very interesting things when you just type "clamps" into google without thinking to clarify by adding "futurama" to the search)

We never said that.

I was going to buy immediately this until I saw that it was back to Divx.  I've had that much trouble with it.  I'll probably still buy it, but I'm a lot less happy about it. 

[mikeeley]

My disappointment is palpable.
