Assaulted HD Download... really?

[d4v0s]

Without protection it can be copied and distributed everywhere.

They need to develop an application that can capture what your screen is showing and then create a tidy avi file... We could call it cam studio.. Brilliant!!

Really tho DRM just makes people want to mess with your content.

And we funded it under the guise of getting the message out. Getting the message out and making a profit seem to be conflicting ideologies.... And our ideology should win out, we paid for it no?

I got the link to my download today (showed up in my junk mail, almost missed it) and it wants me to install some proprietary DRM software that I'm never going to use, AND make an account in said software for some company that I've never heard of... Why? I'm not even sure I want to make an account, but I do want to see the film I supported. As a regular Windows user, I'm usually leery of downloading and installing any 'media player' that I'm not familiar with in the first place. Is there anything that can make me feel better about these obstacles blocking me from watching Assaulted?

Didn't bother me one bit.

lame...

I thought that was stupid too...

I'm thinking they sold the movie to a company that wants to make a buck off it.

Like I said nothing wrong with that but I understand people's consternation over the DRM.

And yes someone will mess with it, people already are, I see torrents for it all over the place.

Tried for hours to get it to work on several computers. No Go. Very disappointed about this whole DRM thing. I paid for my digital content i dont want to have to jump through hoops to get it. Off to find it through other means I go.

Is the only way to watch this dwnld is through flux player?

Can I use VLC player?

[DavidR310]

Great

itunes review says this flux thing has malware https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flux...324300572?mt=8


I may have to buy the DVD but am an HD snob. lol

[smith629]

Bummer. I donated to the project but will not install a malware based app so I guess I won't be watching it on my PC.

I donated... but didn't care about the rewards or perks. I just wanted to see the film made.

I ended up buying it on iTunes to watch it, and stream to Apple TV units to share with friends and family.

Was worth a watch, I know some people that need to watch this.

[SkyStorm82]

That email disappointed me too. I'm not downloading all that.

[DavidR310]

Does any know if the Amazon version is in HD? At least I can use Shop42a.com and help CGN and Deadpatriots.

^^^^+1. This is exactly what I'm doing!

Tell them you're on a Mac, or tell them you're on a Linux system... Just find out whatever OS the DRM software supports, and then tell them you're using something else.

I bought my copy off of iTunes. It was the first movie ever purchased through iTunes before and it worked seamlessly.

I am not sure what seamlessly means so I am going to ask a clarification question.

Are you able to play the itunes version without using that flux player?
