- jackpot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8399.99% done PLEASE SEED!!!1!1
i keed, i keed - rolandde, on 10/12/2007, -1/+55Congratulations!!! . . . to celebrate let's all go download the 700MB version.
- HalFTW, on 10/12/2007, -0/+45No, HD DVD and Blu Ray movies are 1080p which is 1920x1080.
- davodavo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+44Yes. Shame it wasn't funny.
- Steelfox, on 10/12/2007, -5/+33So you can see all the stretch marks on her ***** and all the freckles not covered by all the makeup already on her in high quality? I'll pass.

...and by the time we're done downloading, we'd be on the hundredth blu-ray movie to hit bittorrent - rzurad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23@Pie
We had that same problem when DVD rips first started appearing. It's not really a problem now. ;) - jasonwc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15I have to disagree. The 720p x.264 encodes of television shows available on private trackers far exceeds the quality of DVD, and its exceptional quality is clearly evident on my non-widescreen 19" LCD. HD content blows away anything SD, even when it's been compressed. The 720p x.264 encodes are only 1.07 GB/hour of broadcast which is a mere 3.5 mbit/sec. That's considerably less than DVD!
If these are re-encoded with x.264 at lower bitrates they'll be more reasonably sized (2-3 GB for 720p, 5-8 for 1080p). Remember, even though they're using H.264 and VC-1, they're doing so at very high bitrates to maximize the quality, to ensure that it matches or exceeds MPEG-2. x.264 can achieve exceptional quality at low bitrates at HD resolutions, and is excellent at deblocking. A 3.5-4.5 mbit/sec 720p encode would look very good and fit on a DVD-R. - TheWorm, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19I just have a question..I'm hoping someone can answer. If I were to download this movie to my laptop (macbook 1200x800 resolution), would I be able to watch it in blu ray quality?
- bigred, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Hey... whats wrong with freckles? Girls with freckles are hot!
- Jacob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13They closed the site down no invites or anything. Unless you know a mod but all the mods are jackasses.
- xb00t, on 10/12/2007, -6/+17Most of you wont even see the difference between BluRay/HDDVD/XviD on anything less than 32" HDTV HDMI LCD (I love abbreviation, don't you?). I don't know about you but personally I have no intention of spending a salary and a half on a new TV, BluRay/HDDVD player and cables just to see a few extra pixels. On top of it all we have had TS streams for some time now and they OWN all sorts of "new and shiny" formats with 20MB/s. So to hell with with all these format wars. Give me a good 700MB DVDRiP anytime!
Please ignore this rant. I feel better now... - hadak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10but the real questions is....does VLC play it?
- neeyo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11I support porn, but I don't support 50 inches of razor burn on my tv. There's a time when there is too much quality.
- grendel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8eventually it will be so clear, you will realize that real life has passed you by while you were worrying about 1080p
look how real that tree looks...on my screen...
now i am dead. - aelias, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8What the hell else would I fill 400 gigs with? Porn?
Some of us enjoy HD. Drives are cheap, and when they're empty it almost sounds like they're crying. HD content is still a little scarce unless you like TV. This is more good news. Relax.
Seriously, all caps? - thechadstannard, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9I'll take a 4.7gb xvid please
- Jacob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6for hidef your more likely to find them in x264 and if you want 1080 like this is more like an 8 gig file xvid would be even bigger. Also it'll be a while before they can reencode the files. It was only a few days ago that encodes of hddvds started showing up.
- Xorp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Have you even even seen HD? STFU.
Also, DVDs looks nasty on TVs bigger than 40 inches. - djRob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5So Microsoft can congratulate themselves on wasting so much time to implement useless DRM in Windows Vista.
- etruscan, on 10/12/2007, -11/+16HD-DVD's first was Serenity... it wins.
- darkyoshi, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11What's wrong with Ice Age 2? It was almost as good as Ice Age!
- fareed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Why are you all bitching about the size? What were you expecting?
- CosyCat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+422Gig You can download over night with a regular 10Mbit connection.
- superkendall, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I liked Serenity more personally (I was at a midnight showing the first night, though of course the real fans all saw it even earllier at Wheedon screenings) but you have to admit Ice Age 2 has a lot broader appeal. That is definatley reflected in the box office figures, Snaked on a Plane wasn't the first movie to get a lot of internet buzz then kind of peter out in the theaters.

Scroll down a little bit, and read muslix64 's post, - ManOfCube, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2With 720p x264 stuff I can see the macro blocks on my $799 32" LG HD-CRT (that isn't even completely 1080i, even though it claims that). There is defiantly a difference between DVD, 720 x264 and 1080i transport streams.
- Acill, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Wow, I guess this just shows you when the pirates want it they will get it. This should give some clue to the MPAA that all the money thye spend to protect content only makes this hard on those that would know how to steal it in the first place!
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Agreed; it's only insane to low- to mid-range DSL'ers.
- thushan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2grab the x264 release which fits on to a DVD-R
- vinnievivace, on 10/12/2007, -14/+16that little squirrel dude cracked me up... ha. get it?
- JeremyBanks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I'm in Toronto, the largest city in Canada, and the regular consumer plans rarely go post 6 Mbps (I'm on 5). Theoretically, yes, you could download that in about ten hours, but your bandwidth speed is never entirely what its advertised to be, and you'll never be able to find sources to offer the download for that speed. When I'm lucky I got 100 KBps on BitTorrent, and at that speed it would take me 2.6 days.
- metalhead3767, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2So does anyone have a link to the torrent?
- Bytor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You are out of touch.
Some early BR releases were bigger using MPEG 2. Current movies use the same codecs in both formats, so they are essentially the same size and quality now. - geezusfreeek, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I'm sorry, 10Mb/s is high end for most Net surfers in the US.
- fox, on 04/11/2009, -0/+1at least it played this file : http://rapidshare.com/files/12497232/00007decrypted.m2ts.html
that file is from that muslix64 guy on the doom9 forums - Xorp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1VLC can play the actual video stream, but it's in a container VLC doesn't currently recognize, nor can it decoder the menus etc.
- sirloin, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4It also shows drm isnt really about piracy.. i mean these guys are not stupid, they higher brainy programmers..
and do you really need 10 years of history?
music and movie drm is years late to the table... games and high priced applications have been down this road for a lot longer.
nothing has ever worked.. not even dongles(starforce gets honorable mention but still is always cracked)
it cant work, as the guys on twit say.. the key has to be on the device somehow
so why spend millions on something everyone knows wont work?
they arent after the pirate, they are after the sheep
device lock in and multiple purchases of the same thing.
either that or they really are stupid. - kidcodea, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1rip done, great, now compress it with best h264, thanks in advance.
that probably means x264 or the mainconcept one according to msu :) - fox, on 04/11/2009, -0/+1I think vlc does play it
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Rip ur own HDDVD and Bluray discs at http://www.aacskeys.com ...You can now even add ur own keys!
- PimNL, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Somebody got a screenshot?
- KillSudo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Any chance you could post the filename. :) I own the dvd but would love to see this on my monitor.
- JimmyRyan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Hostel is also available.. I had more luck getting that than I did Ice Age..
- Doghound, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2-Dave
HD-DVD looks about the same if not better than Blu-Ray. Not to mention it has a better interface than Blu-Ray (they both have the overlaying menus, but HD-DVD adds a in-movie experience Blu-Ray does not have).
And don't take this as me taking sides. I have both drives and movies for both, so I'm speaking from first hand experience. - roeboedog, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1where's my community raid or nas when I need it
- noahs, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1yay?
- jasonwc, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@ManOfCube:
Well, it depends on the quality of the x264 release. I find CTU releases to be of the best quality. They have almost no macroblocking. Some of the others, in their rush to release first, apparently don't use the deblocking filter. But you are correct- a 720p or 1080i transport stream is clearly going to be superior. However, it's too large to archive. Even after removing commercials, it's still 5-6 GB per hour of broadcast.
My plan is to watch the transport stream when the show airs, and I can download the 720p x264 episodes as well, which I can archive to DVD for future viewing. - wakeborder, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3I think the blu-ray camp just caught fire
- Xorp, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Just go to http://binsearch.info/ and search for hd-dvd
