So I heard you guys like Kim Dotcom... This was released today:

Quote
Published on Sep 26, 2012 by MrKimDotcom
This is what they don't want you to have.
Unchaining artists and fans.
Megabox is coming soon.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kw04ckfO-yA

No payment options (or bitcoin references) in the video, as far as I can tell.

I am disappoint.

Kindly ask Mr. Dotcom to consider accepting bitcoin as a payment option?  Smiley

I can't find the "pay with Bitcoin button" yet. But I imagine it would be blue.

Yeah, theres defenetly a person cult which i cant understand.
Kim is not an ethical person, he is a business man with a questionable past.
Filesharing is a business like any other commercial theme on the internet, and here like everywhere else in the business world n1 rule, everybody is replaceable.
There are dozens of filesharing sites and the only thing that makes this guy special that he is somewhat a freaky person and has tons of groupies, lol.

Well, he is the right person to fight the governments abuse. A normal nerd would probably stop once police from all over the world come and arrest you, sue you, menace you etcetc even if you are innocent  Cheesy

so far, those could just be fancy drawings, nothing more. but i guess he's learned a lot in the past years.
not sure if this is BTC relevant at all, though.

Making a Megaupload account was free too. That doesn't mean that there weren't things you could pay for.

Kim knows about Bitcoin and he also knows that Visa, MC, and paypal are out of the question.

Hopefully he takes the obvious route of at least making Bitcoin a payment option.

Desperate times takes desperate measures: The world needs this megalomaniacal supernerd to spearhead a fight against the in-grown nail that is the established recording industry.

I fail to see how this is bitcoin related though...

Kim Dotcom has been a scumbag all his life: stealing, scamming and hacking. (If the sources I have read for this are correct)
That's why:

I can't find the "pay with Bitcoin button" yet. But I imagine it would be blue.

I just scanned the whole video in HD, frame by frame, no indication of bitcoin related stuff (not on screens or around the office, although some Guy Fawkes mask in the background). The guys were browsing amazon two times, so I guess they will obviously include some "buy this song on amazon"-feauture. Also, some guy had http://xr650r.net/ bookmarked (no they dont accept bitcoin Wink.

Ok, maybe in some coming up footage, we'll see..

It will be.

Mr. Dotcom will not be able to use Visa/MC for anything in the future and he will want the world market.  Unless me makes his own currency, he would probably end up using Bitcoin.
