Guess where Nintendo puts a lot of money into lobbying… hint: it ain’t China…

I’ve got quite a collection of games you can no longer buy,everyone else 🏴‍☠️

Rayspekt,

I would love to get Ruse on Steam, man.

morbidcactus,

Wait that’s not on steam anymore? Is there an easy way to find what in your library can’t be purchased anymore?

crisinho,

Yeah, it was the same for me. I loved playing the demo on the PS3 back in the days. You can actually get it from key resellers which is what I did. However, I think they sell for about 80€ or so which is insane. I thought it was expensive when I bought it for 30€.

Apollo2323, w How do the Debrid services get away from copyright?

This is what I found from a Reddit comment: Debrid services literally are just like if you downloaded from the share website directly, as if you had signed up for an account with them. And/or the debrid service downloads the torrent on their server, and you stream from it.

This is already protecting you from any potential legal issue.

Some people may get warnings/potential legal trouble for torrenting directly, but this is only because when using torrent you also become a hoster of the content yourself. This doesn’t happen with these.

janguv,

Think you’ve missed the point a bit of OP’s comment. They’re asking not how the end-user is protected from copyright claims, but how the debrid service itself is.

Apollo2323,

Yes you are right lol well I hope it was helpful from somebody else.

kratoz29,

I guess it would, aside speed, this is another big reason for some users to get it, as a third world country person I couldn’t care less about torrenting, nor data caps now that I remember 🤣

Apollo2323,

Lucky you :)

I wish the article did a better job of exploring the subject. It really only presents one side of the story, here.

nestEggParrot,

It clearly states what he did and on what he was prosecuted. How is it one sided? It doesn’t quote people from either side but rather states facts presumably from court filings.

If you want arguments on how this is bad or why such things shouldn’t be prosecuted, look for an opinion piece. Thats not the job for every news reporting.

Kolanaki, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify
!deleted6508 avatar

Even then you might not see them. I’ve noticed recently that a ton of songs that used to have the lyrics attached no longer show the lyrics or have the button to show them. And I do have premium.

s_v,

I noticed that as well, and I, too, have premium

unonessun0centomila,

Meanwhile, I’m sitting here with my pirated apk and I can still see all the lyrics 😂

bear_with_a_hammer, w Stream any torrent in sync with your friends

What protocol does hTorrent use to communicare with BitTorrent peers? Webtorrent uses WebRtc which is incompatible with most torrent clients today

MrBusinessMan, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

Solid business decision by Spotify here, I support this move. I’ll probably switch over to them from YouTube music.

butter,

I know right. What’s Spotify’s goal with this move

Whirlybird,

What’s Spotify’s goal with this move

Get people to pay for premium…

butter,

So someone can ignore the ads, ignore not being able to chose a song, and ignore no download. But having to open musixmatch in a separate app is the straw that broke the camels back

TheMadnessKing,

The idea of suddenly having something taken away fro you really triggers people.

If they had introduced as premium from start, then no would have cared about it.

Whirlybird,

It seems they were right going by how upset people are in here. Many of these people that are carrying on like spoiled children will no doubt subscribe to premium now.

sysgen,

The goal is that now that they’ve been caught pirating lyrics, they have to pay MusixMatch for their lyrics, perhaps on a per request basis, so they lose money by making it available.

lud, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

It does make sense though since Spotify has to pay musixmatch for the service.

wecalledhimmavis,

who crowdsource a heap of their lyrics, paying a pittance to their curators 🙄

lud,

That’s true. But to be fair, I have added one song and synced a few. I didn’t do it because I wanted pay, I did it because I wanted the song’s lyrics to be on Spotify and on the app.

They built a service and people seem to like it, so I don’t mind.

gc_, w Stream any torrent in sync with your friends

Could anyone tell me about how torrent streaming works? Is it just the file being downloaded to a server and streamed to a bunch of viewers, or something else?

Spacellary, (edited )

I use WebTorrent / WebTorrent-CLI and it basically streams/partially downloads the torrent and plays in your player of choice.

Not sure about this other option here.

gc_, w Japanese YouTuber convicted of copyright violation after uploading Let’s Play videos

At this point, aren’t the Japanese stifling any discussion about copyrighted content? This has to be stupid, yes?

so ridiculous and sad.

sculd, w Japanese YouTuber convicted of copyright violation after uploading Let’s Play videos

Japan is very bad in terms of copyrighted stuff. If that person lives overseas this would never have happened.

odium, w Japanese YouTuber convicted of copyright violation after uploading Let’s Play videos

Anyone else suddenly struck by an urge to make let’s plays of stein’s gate in their less draconian copyright law home region?

ADHDefy, w Stream any torrent in sync with your friends
@ADHDefy@kbin.social avatar

Hmm, I wonder if this could be aadapted to a Stremio plugin.

Jacoolh,

I was just about to ask this.

kratoz29,

Check this

kratoz29,

Don’t we already have Peario?

ADHDefy,
@ADHDefy@kbin.social avatar

I didn't know that we did, but yes, apparently! lol :O

That is awesome.

kratoz29,

I have not been able to check it out myself, so if you do please share the experience :D

Moonrise2473, w Japanese YouTuber convicted of copyright violation after uploading Let’s Play videos

while i think that two years of prison for this is completely ridiculous, a “let’s play” video of a visual novel, it’s essentially the same of “playing” a visual novel

Thorned_Rose,
@Thorned_Rose@kbin.social avatar

Yes, but for those who don't watch anime or play anime games, it can be great to get summaries so you have context for some conversations. Like, if a friend of mine watches a TV show or plays a game when I don't, if I have no interest in watching or playing, I have no context. Maybe I want to support my friends interest without putting in the same hours so it's nice to be able to get a summary or just the important parts so I know what my friend is talking about and can at least converse with them on the basics. (Though I do believe such videos should have giant spoiler warnings)
