Pirates Make Oscar Nominees a Free Download

Normally, movie studios are very protective of its movies from piracy, but come Oscar time, studio executives appear to be willing to risk the safety of its property at a better chance to stake claim to an Academy Award. Pirated versions of this year’s Oscar nominees made their way into illegal channels beginning late 2006, and into the hands of movie watchers who would otherwise not have access to the nominated Hollywood movies until much later.

I think this article spawns the quote of the day, “To those worried about downloading in case they get sued: by our calculations, your chances of getting nailed are way less than your chances of winning the lottery. Don’t think twice about it.”
