aa ok, now  you have a pm

Ok, two things here. First, your first month of netflix is free. I know this, because I didn't want to pay for a subscription either, I don't watch enough TV/movies to really justify the cost, but I did want to watch the new season of Stranger Things, so I signed up and got a free trial. To this day, I still get offers to come back for another free trial, presumably because I did cancel it before that first month was up, so they want another paying customer. Even if you've already used up your free trial somehow, surely it can't be that hard to find someone who's never signed up before. So, if you truly just want to watch this one movie, and, honestly, I agree that I wouldn't want to pay a subscription fee if that's all I was going to be doing with it, I'm sure there's someone out there who will be willing to help you out.

The second thing I'd like to bring up is in regards to whether we obtain the same amount of information without audio description. It depends, of course, but there's a simple solution if you feel you haven't grasped something that happened. Plot summaries are your friend, guys. Wikipedia usually has detailed breakdowns of shows and movies, as does IMDB. There's no reason why you can't easily find them.

Edit:
You can't be serious? Deleting the topic would serve absolutely no purpose. If anything, it should be kept around as a reminder to others that talking about piracy is not tolerated here anymore.

Not only netflix is accessible and not only the first month is free.
But, you can actually find content with audio description there and subtitles are read, at least on the iphone.
Not every show has audio description, but some of them do.

MasterOfDeath, I would just like to point out that the reason things keep coming up is not because you're right. It's because you're wrong and can't accept it. Let's dismantle your arguments. I'll be brief. I promise.

1. We're all rich over here in the USA
Uh, no. I'm also Canadian, BTW. Two months ago, I had to borrow money from a friend over the weekend because I didn't have enough to feed my cat. I get by, but not by freaking much. That'll hopefully change when I get a job, but for now it's pretty tight, thank you very much. That's the last time I want to hear about how we have it easy and this informs our choices. Last. Time. Could it be that we're maybe just tired of supporting piracy, and our financial situation has nothing to do with it?
2. The old team did it better
The old team had less drama to deal with, and did some things extremely well. The old team also had a hypocritical stance, where they'd crack down on games but not so much on media. Now that's gone. Deal or leave; your call. I'm tired of having to defend this.
3. Mods have all pirated material
Again, take personal and professional and put them in two places. Have I ever pirated anything in my life? Yes, I have. Am I going to tell you how I did it, where I got it or what it was? No, I'm not. And neither are you, if you want to remain a member in good standing of the forum. Let me state for everyone the point we're trying to make: we can't and won't stop you doing this, we're just asking you not to do it here. Hell, even the original poster admits that they made a mistake, and now seems interested in pursuing legitimate avenues to get hold of the content they want. This is awesome. Totally down with that.

Now, apart from MasterOfDeath, I do want to make a point about audio description.
I've personally watched tons of movies without it and gotten by all right. I can do it and I don't mind. But not everyone can, so I can see why it's important for some people. But as stated Netflix and other streaming services have free trials, and can get you access to all kinds of stuff. Maybe you start by only wanting one thing, but when the world is at your fingertips you decide you want more. and as stated, for those who are too young, maybe try and get someone to buy it for you/get someone to share their account with you legally if that's possible? There are other options besides piracy in most cases. And if there really and truly are no sources for a piece of media that are not pirated, please just don't solicit them here in public. That's it. That's all. That's not too hard to do.

RTT entertainment, please don't delete the frickin topic. Us administrators also aren't closing it, as no rules have yet been violated, as unproductive as this discussion might be headed right now.

Master of death, I unfortunately arrived to the party a bit late, but no worries. Ethin and Jayde already said what I was going to. I understand you don't like our stance on piracy, you've told us in about every way possible aside from civilized and thought  provoking. Assuming you aren't using the piracy topic as fuel for your obvious beef with the team, and actually have complaints... Why haven't you gone and attacked the actual site hosts for failing to respond to our requests? As mods/admins, we still answer to them.
It's the smart and professional way of handling issues. Problems with a colleague? Voice your complaints. Take it to management. Problems with management? Take it yet higher on the Corporate latter. You flew off the handle with some absurdly wild accusations this time that others have already combated.
I wish you luck with your future protests.

OO! I almost forgot. The Admins really should consider that other countries are less fortunate than western powerhouses like the U S and Canada. I mean, i'm sure its easier to go to a library in  Moncton and get pretty much any audio book you want. Paypal doesn't work in certain countries and in some countries, people probably don't use  credit cards. You guys need to be a bit more understanding.
But stay firm with the anti-piracy pollicy.

Of course I wouldn't be glad if you behaved this way, but I'm even not a powerhungry administrator, so that's it.
The problem is that nowadays not everyone can stand to their two feet, think about the situation and protest if necessary. We always think like it'll be better one day. No, it won't be, if we don't put an end to this.

this discussion was so incredibly fucking stupid.
I can not believe that audiogames.net is the only place you guys can possibly think of to talk about where to find audio described movies.  Find another place, and stop complaining about it.  This place is supposed to be about games anyway.
All the arguments were already heard and talked about for weeks and weeks before the change went into effect, so why on earth do some of you think it's useful to start all over again and bring up pointless unrelated crap like if the mods have pirated or not or how you can't get certain things in your country.
None of that has anything to do with the rule being created in the first place!  You are making your self the victim and trying to make this about morals when it has very little to do with that at all.
How freaking selfish and winy do you think that makes you sound?
No one in charge of making rules cares what you have to say any more, so please for god's sake just stop bothering the rest of us.
You lost the fight, don't be sore losers, and if it bothers you so much, please just do us all a favor and leave.
You are at least half the reason this forum is not what it used to be, but you are so desperate to win that you can't even see how much damage your doing.  Or maybe you never cared in the first place and just pretended you did?
Until you can stop bitching about every tiny thing that bothers you for weeks and weeks without stopping, I don't want to hear anything about how the forum used to be so much better bla bla bla.  Yeah, it was better.  And take my word for it, a big part of the reason for that is because you guys weren't here yet.

Its such a shame. People like MOD and others contineuously call the admins power hungry, but i se no power hungry behaviour. If its anyone who is power hungry its you. you keep demanding that the admins follow your ideologies and demanding the forum rise up alongside you and overthrow the admins. You need to grow up. I mean, its people like you that make other kids like me and others who want to exist on this blasted forum without sickening discussions like this! You should take some time to leave the forum, relax and come back. It happened to me in the game constant battle. The admins wronged me i took time to cool off and its better now. You on the other hand, just looks for the slightest chance to attack the admins. IT MUST STOP, NOW!

If even parents use torrents, they won't pay for example for a spotify account, a netflix, and anything, because they can get them from some torrents, then why can't the children as well. Sadly this is Hungary, and I guess, the general opinion is exactly this.
And to the ones who wish me to leave. It would be bad only for you, not for me though. I can gently leave, but what kind of mentality is this, like hey, if you don't like something then you are free to leave... Holy god. That's why I'm not surprised at that everyone leaves this kind of shit, including Aprone, who was and still is a respected developer.
I could have left a lot of times already. The reason why I haven't done it yet, is that there are some topics which aren't constantly judged by the mods, some topics where we can have normal and mature discussions, and where we can exchange opinions. And that's why I registered here, to talk about games and others tuff related to it. And not to face a huge drama. Don't you think a bit before you claim that there's no mistake in you? There are lots of mistakes in everyone. In me, and in you either. Sometimes I am harsh, I am fully aware of that. But it seems we can't reach anything with civil arguments.
And that the mods aren't power hungry? I don't know if a situation like hey, I'm called J and I wanna promote myself to the admin rank can't be called as power hungry being.

Lol. you can't promote yourself to the admin rank. Another admin has to do it.
Nice try though.
