MovieSwap: Company Wants to Make Online Movie Sharing Legal with DVDs
Sharing copyrighted
movies online is not legal, and rights owners are still furious about the amount of piracy out there — though many studies have shown that illegal downloads don’t cut into their bottom lines.
Of course, sharing DVDs with friends and family is perfectly legal and nobody will come after you for that.
What if a brand new streaming service took that approach to the next level? What if you could share your DVDs with millions of “friends” from around the world, and watch their DVDs just as you’d watch content on Netflix?
There’s a new movie streaming service called MovieSwap that wants to make DVD movie sharing popular again, but with a modern twist that’s likely to enrage movie studios.
