"***LORD OF THE RINGS*** ON VCD £6 INC P&P"

"Well it is illegal as the film is not out on to buy. VCD's arent illegal as Asian countrys prefer them to VHS. They even had a special edition PS1 that could play VCD's. But he is selling a film which is only available in the cinema and is probably being filmed from a Camcorder and then put onto VCD, or he has downloaded it from the internet where many films that are only out in the cinema can be available."

True - then again, this guy could live in another country, be a complete pillock and not know the copyright laws. Or, he could just be a pillock, trying to sell pirated software. Yes, you can also download special hacks that can turn your PS2 into a VCD player, with the software burnt onto a CD to act as a "boot disc". There's one thing I've been dying to know - where the hell do these people get clear and complete films from? They have their sources I suppose.

This is a forum - not a place to advertise!

To be fair, I think that a few of you need to just listen to me for a sec. I'm not saying that I'm 100% correct on this - but here goes.

"Nah I would prefer the 'Real' thing"

VCD's are "real" if you catch my drift. VCD's are perfectly legal, but I can say where you are going with the collectors item. My friend got a Harry Potter VCD the other day and gave it to me. I checked it out and the quality was watchable, but a bit worse than VHS quality. Eventually I turned it off, after the sound went out of sync.

LOTR is a 4-disc DVD!?

"then i think you should wait and pay £20 in a years time when you can get the collectors edition!!!
bye and good luck"

Meh - at least he isn't being bitter...unless that's sarcasm.

"we don't want your pirated crap here thankyou."

Like I said before, it's not pirated - it's perfectly legal.

Gypsy Man (hehe - I couldn't resist) - take your deal elsewhere please, because this is a chat forum, not a web market.

Thank you!

Heh heh. Gypsy man again.

Bog off gypsy man, we don't want your pirated crap here thankyou.

Nah Ill wait 8 Months.

With that I'll get a decent picture too.

Nah I would prefer the 'Real' thing at that price so it would remain a 'Genuine' collectors item and with a value that gets higher over the years because it is 'Genuine'.
Complete with Dolby Digital 5:1.....DTS and 'Genuine' Widescreen.
Get my meaning.
Plus id rather have the Directors cut with the extra hour of footage and of course the stills, cinematic clips and the extra THREE DVD'S to boot.
