    Nice feature, wish they'd told me about the process running in the background using up my bandwidth without my knowledge though. ;)

    I'll have to remember to watch anything I download before it expires. I've got about 20 days left on I, Robot now.

    Complaining about what? The DRM or the background process?

    I've not actually complained about either. The DRM is fine... as long as I remember to watch the download before it expires. The background process is fine, now that I know it's there and that it'll continue to download anything in my queue even with the main program closed.

    :)

    Because if you pirate it, download it, then your likely to get caught arn't you?
    At least with removing the DRM no1's gonna know, all i wanna do is put it on my PMP.

    Ah, fair enough. :) The quality of the movies I've downloaded seem fine to me.

    just found out about this, thanks... but.... I cant register because it wont accept my viewing card number, considering we have three sets, thats a big deal.

    cant wait until they put stuff like battlestar galactica on-- not that I would know anyway :wallbash:

    hmm.. how to register, stupid sky :sigh:

    Have you tried each card number ?
    I think it's the primary card you need.

    Well, its working now... I tried both last time, but didnt work. it does now, who knows why -- dont really care.

    Anyone know where the films are stored? I'm not fond of playing through the flash interface, even though I can still full screen it.

    I would expect slim to none. At least not until theres significant competition. I expect only stuff expected to be watched very often will be put up.
