| Hi all
How is this legal free. I purchased this and it was well worth it. Amiga promotion and media products dot need things like this killing the little profit the creators make.
Link removed due to bad content to other sites...

It is not legal to you, but it may very well be legal for others, copyright laws are not global. _________________ B5D6A1D019D5D45BCC56F4782AC220D8B3E2A6CC |

Hi You have point about links. I would like to think most people who visit Amigaworld.com support the developers and would not use the link. I only put the link into to prove what is out there killing what little we have left of Amiga. To Mods please remove link if needed.

| I remember reading that this movie was going to come on Netflix. But now I cannot find where I read that.

That Flenix site appears to be a scam. When I clicked on the link to "watch free" it took me to a page that wanted me to download and install an executable.
Have you heard of Flenix before this? There are sites out there that scrape data from sources such as Amazon, IMDB, etc. and generate front-end pages like this which redirect to malware downloads like I encountered. If you know Flenix is a legitimate service then maybe they just have a bad "contributor" or something. |

I had that as if you close the page that opens and click play again it played for me. _________________ A1200 ACA1232 128MB Indivison MkIICr Elbox empty Power Tower RPi3 Emulating C64 ZX Atari PS BBC Wii with Amiga emulation Vampire v4 SA |

It was a link to watch the commodore movie for free which I felt was bad for the developers and the community. Was just pointing it out hoping someone who developed the film would investigate... They most likely don't have the money to chase stuff like this and stop it. _________________ A1200 ACA1232 128MB Indivison MkIICr Elbox empty Power Tower RPi3 Emulating C64 ZX Atari PS BBC Wii with Amiga emulation Vampire v4 SA |

Ah yes I think that one was also posted to my club Facebook group. Had to be removed. It is sad that even now the pirate mentality is sill dominant in the Amiga world. I kind of get the point that it isn't real unless it's in a box with hardware inside and this translates to mobiles where people just want all apps for free. But it really isn't much to buy this and support them. I recently made some purchases on AmiStore (once it was working) for some digital products. It felt strange to pay money but not have a physical product in hand. But it is also good, once you get used to it, as you save on the clutter of another box with manuals (as nice as that is) and as I did buy a top version for less as digital is discounted, misses out on shipping charges and can be downloaded soon after. Even if you have slowband it will no doubt be faster than delivery via snail mail. Unless you live near by the shop. Last edited by Hypex on 21-Jul-2018 at 08:08 AM.
