I added my Return of the sith workprint-DVDs a little over 4 months before it came to theaters. I procrastinated in starting them because I had priority to other DVDs - mostly BBC documentary DVDs and Carl Sagan’s Cosmos DVDs. I started downloading them about two weeks prior and they finished about 2 weeks after theatrical release. I am very spoiled to DVD screeners and I think I only EVER downloaded 1 CAM - X-Men 3.? I don’t expect to be CAMing any theaters myself because I generally won’t keep CAMs in my hoard because of their shitty quality.? So I largely slip through the cracks of one of the main purproses of this law.? Expect more laws and worse laws though.? Anything thats not through a shopping-mall pay-for-everything, be dictacted on every action, and be watched over everything business model will eventually be illegal.
