It's Ron Borges, actually.
Well there's a Cease & Desist Order just waiting to happen...
Well the only reason it hasn't happened is if it has stayed under the NFL's radar. Sooner or later, that will no longer be the case. Tough to find any entity as fiercely protective of their copyrights as the NFL is.
Gotta diagree with you there... enforcing your copyright and broadcast exclusivity isn't "being anal" it is a big deal... If you're DirecTV and you pay millions and millions of dollars for exclusive broadcasting rights, aren't you a wee bit pissed if some schmoe is doing it for free online...? Heck, we aren't even supposed to radio coverage of the games online without paying...
Yeah, I heard the NFL is about to declare bankruptcy because some guys who couldn't watch a game on network TV anyway are watching it on the internet.
I am not sure why you would make such an ignorant statement... Perhaps you think that if a business is doing well financially, they should just ignore it when large amounts of people try and steal their product...?
Ohhhhhh kayyyyy.... somebody needs to grow a sense of humor here...
Well, last time I checked, copyright infringement was a "real crime"... You must have some other definition of the words "real crime" that the rest of us don't know about... I suppose to you copyright infringement is just a "make-believe crime"..?
Neither am I. I'm just saying it's illegal.
Well I am not entirely sure what the limitations of Slingbox are... Just out of curiousity, can multiple people on multiple computers view the same single Slingbox connection..?
I have one and I have it set up... I certainly may be wrong, but I don't think you can have multiple computers reading off one single box. You essentially have to "log in" and I think only one computer can be logged in at a time. Now, if my brother is in Florida and wants to see the NE-NYJ game and I let him log onto my Slingbox, that isn't exactly something the NFL would ever know about and crack down on. But if start a website where anyone in the country can log in and watch the game, they would shut me down in a heartbeat.
Well, I would say the same thing about Slingbox that I say about the streamednfl.blogspot website... re-broadcasting an NFL telecast over the internet is illegal. Period.
That's a great comparison and, to further the comparison, look what happened to the original P2P music sharing sites like Napster and Kazaa. They got sued and shut down by the music industry.
Well, usually what it takes is something like this to become common and widespread before action is taken... I doubt they could ever get all the sites that do such things, but I have no doubt they would go after the big ones when presented with such.
