Yay! iHub! :D


Is this thing an Apple genuine product?
I am asking because it has the Apple logo. I wonder how much time will Apple tolerate this.
Its a cool hub, by the way!

No, it is not geniune. In fact, they don't make those any more for a while now because Apple does not tolerate the use of their brand logo on third-party products. I bought it via eBay.

----------

I use megaupload for my movies instead of torrents ;) That plus a blu ray drive and handbrake is handy lol allegedly of course.


I just like having physical discs as well, i still have 1100 vinyl and 1000+ cd's which are ripped but i can't see myself parting with them and still buy more when cheap like these blu rays were-still finding it hard to go fully digital tbh.

If there wouldn't be anyone to buy movies they would stop making movies all together, so it's good that there are still people who do - I do too btw.

If you live in a country where the MPAA has a strong lobby it's not really worth the hassle downloading illegally anymore. The Feds are all over this, especially torrents. A couple years back you always started the story with "I know a guy who knows a guy who has a brother... that got caught..." nowadays I actually know a few people directly that got prosecuted either trough lawyers or through the DA. And since I'm not planning on paying a couple of grant for a single movie I prefer to pay movie by movie.

I said: dont get offended.

I live in Brazil, here these things are really expensive. I'd say almost three times what it costs in USA.
Even though, I buy my own Blu-rays instead of downloading, but not THAT many as the picture! I wish I could afford so many purchases ehehe

By the way, does anybody watch Blu-ray on iMac or macbook?

Is that even possible? I mean, I thought the superdrive wasn't capable of reading Blu-ray disks?

I got in on that Living Social $20 for $40 at Incase deal, and picked up the new Slim Sleeve for my 15" MacBook Pro in Insignia Blue/Cobalt. I absolutely love it. I've had Incase sleeves before (regular and plus), but this one is my favorite by far. It's nice and slim, the zippers tuck into the side, and it fits like a glove. Really happy I picked this one up.
