Comments on: DVD rips of 'Dark Knight' appear online

Warner Bros. won the first round last summer by preventing all but one very poor pirated copy from landing on the Web. This time, the P2P sites beat the DVD release.

"..it was able to prevent all but one unwatchable pirated copy of The Dark Knight from appearing on the Web"

Uh, reality check! It was "Streaming" same day, with some VERY watchable cams.

Yeah, apparently, they just don't know where to look.
I have friends who downloaded (supposedly) very decent cams within a week of the movie's release.

As long as you can see it or hear it, you can record it.

Already shared. Still seeding... ;) However, Comcast already sent me a warning for sharing the "Quantum of Solace" torrent a few days ago. :D

"Warner Bros. celebrated that it was able to prevent all but one unwatchable pirated copy of The Dark Knight from appearing on the Web".

Are you kidding?
That movie has been available in DVD quality for months.
