In Reply to: you're ignoring distribution rights of the studios posted by Jazz Inmate on September 5, 2009 at 22:39:18:
or more likely you're just the kind of person who can't stand to be wrong.Distribution rights, even if they were relevant to this (they're not, you are now stretching far afield from your original assertion), are an issue between the producing STUDIO and the disc distributor. Distribution rights have nothing whatsoever to do with the hardware manufacturer, whose only license obligation is to region lock the player according to the region of sale.
Once again, distribution rights have NOTHING whatsoever to do with the consumer, and their is no contractual relationship between the distributor and consumer, nor are their any laws restricting the consumer in that regard.
You are getting even worse in trying to equate the copying and distribution of music files with modifying a blu-ray player. Copying and distributing copyrighted material to circumvent royalties is, indeed, a crime. There are indeed intellectual property laws, and those are indeed enforced. They are laws that apply to consumers.
But modifying a blu-ray player and viewing discs from other regions is no violation at all of intellectual property laws, nor any other statute.
Bottom line - flat out, full stop - you are 100% wrong, there is NOTHING illegal in ANY country about modifying a Blu-Ray player to be region free.
I'm happy to write the Blu-Ray Association today giving them my full confession that I have modified my OPPO BDP-83 to be region free, with my full name and address, and invite prosecution.
No worries of course, there has never been one, as there are NO LAWS against it. They might even ask me where to get one.
You have a long history here and elsewhere of being wrong, being argumentative and generally being a fool. Why do you keep it up?
