Isn't this illegal?

[link removed] I'm sorry, and I DESPERATELY want the DOS EE too, but isn't this, well, fraud? Or at the very least unethical? Piracy issues? I'm not sure, but something about it hits my gut the wrong way, and I'm very intuitive and am (more often than not) not wrong when it comes to my gut instincts.

I've removed that post, until the Admins can make a decision about the legality of this...if it's legally okay, we can put it back. Thank you for the heads-up, now to see what else is out there...

I just don't want other innocent people who want the movie to get into piracy trouble if it is, in fact, illegal to do this

as stated here. quote: "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." I hope that helps At any rate, I'm really glad I didn't attempt to do so, because I don't want to risk losing my itunes access!

That, and other phrases in the iTunes TOS, need to be heeded. That post will not be returning.

That was a close one. I was willing to do it because it didn't seem 'too' illegal (I'm going to pay for the content, right?). Finished reading all of the instructions and out of sheer laziness decided that I did not want to go through with this (perhaps). Came to the Feedback board with the assumption that the ethical red-flag-raising Cirashala would have likely brought it to the Mods attention. Read your post about Apple agreement terms and felt the need to thank you. Guess we're just gonna have to wait. It better be available at midnight, twelve o'clock, on the dot.

Sigh (hangs head).... You're welcome, despite my new "nickname". I wouldn't want to see anyone get banned from itunes. Still, it's not that comforting to know that I'm becoming well known as a whistle-blower on here No kidding- it better be! (not like last year )

...a lot of folks end up suffering. It's far better to request that we take a look at something, than to let it pass and have problems!

I don't want others suffering, so I try to prevent it. Still, it's not the most comforting to know that I'm becoming known as a "snitch" But I guess it boils down to the fact that I'd rather get some flack from a few people for doing what's right than have others suffer because nothing is said

It seemed like your username was the most numerous one under the Author column the few times I had visited the Feedback board. I'm not sure if other TORn members would agree that you have a reputation for alerting Mods to instances of discord and controversy. However, I do believe that most would agree that you have a reputation for being charmingly personal and captivatingly knowledgable.

I feel much better now And that could be because I tend to reply as well as do original posting- not everyone does that
