News Sony aims to make PS5 owners spend more money, despite current backlash.
Sony is the first company that is trying to go all out in the digital industry, finally leaving discs behind and clarifying that “it’s impossible to own digital games”. Sony has now angered the player base even further by confirming that they are trying to get their users to spend even more money. Let me know what you think.

Question Cheapest way to watch EPL for premier league, champions league & La Liga?
Currently using megogo which gets English commentary on EPL games but nothing else. I'm a bit frustrated at the streaming off Late though last night the arsenal game and audio was a few seconds out of sync which actually made it unwatchable. Tod and setanta are nightmares to get working reliably with their aggressive VPN blocking and even smart DNS is sometimes unreliable for them.
The only other good option I've found is to use fubo for EPL and to subscribe to bein sports from a Asian country to get la liga and champions League which works out at around £22 which is significantly more than the £8.66 I pay to megogo for all the sports plus YouTube premium. Anyone else know any other way to get it cheaper? I'm aware of vidio but there streams are legitimately horrible. Worse than pirated streams

Question What ebook device to buy?
So I've been a pirate for a good 15 years now and I know all the ropes and I have no problem with that whatsoever.
The problem starts cause I want to buy an ebook reader, I have no idea how they work, never touched one. I dont know their formats, if all of them connect to a PC for transfers.
So I have two major problems: what ebook device(s) to buy and 2) how easy it is to put a pirated copy of a book in these things?
Thanks in advance.

News "A Cute Little LibGen Babysitter": Music Publishers Sue Anthropic Founders Over Torrenting Spree * TorrentFreak
torrentfreak.comAnthropic's bulk torrenting of pirated books from shadow libraries LibGen and Pirate Library Mirror continues to generate new lawsuits.
A group of major publishers, including Sony Music and Warner Chappell, have sued the AI company and its co-founders, alleging that torrenting activity that resulted in a $1.5 billion settlement, also infringed on their musical works.
Meanwhile, the music companies appear to be confused about the history of shadow libraries.

Question How do I rip an eBook from Pearson into a pdf?
Hi everyone,
I rented an textbook that I couldn't find on the internet, so I had to go out and rent it sadly, however I now want to rip it and upload it somewhere so that other students don't have to spend money on it. I also would just prefer to have it on computer offline, instead of having to log into the Pearson website.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

Discussion My mom is dying and my MIL just died today. I have hundreds of dvds from both of their houses. Any advice on what to do with them?
I'm loathe to add to a landfill. And, with the "buying isn't owning" culture, I hate to rid the world of them. Any suggestions?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. As you can imagine, it's been a pretty rough week.
