I read yesterday they had already received 35 BTC at their donation address.
They seem to have used this address for some different purpose back in 2013 and 31BTC got transferred away from it on April 6th 2014. The rest of the transactions start on the 9th of October, when the documentary was released. yes indeed it can but I'd rather promote the crypto way of doing things. Enjoy content without any obligation of payment. Pay what you can afford later. This is the way of the future and here we have a wonderful chance to promote it. So far we're doing a decent job with 300+ transactions, totaling 5+ Bitcoins having been sent to the address during the last couple of days. I'm sure we can do better Although it should be noted the video is not posted on YouTube or Vimeo, which gives incentive to buy it through iTunes which is DRM only service. I have a friends who don't use torrents from uneducated fear they could have some legal consequences using it. My tries to convince them it is not rational to fear the torrents in any way were unsuccessful. If one wants to get to broader, non tech-savvy audience torrent only distribution is not a way to go. I agree that this is a valid point and I'm glad that the alternatives for the neophobes are out there. I just happen to think that this way of content distribution, enabled by crypto, is a wonderful, liberating force which, if widespread, could provide at least supplemental income for lots of people with artistic hobbies. Something very welcome in this age of disappearing job opportunities caused by technological progress. I have written about this topic before here: How information can be free

... New paradigm. Legitimizing torrenting supported by BTC donations.
They can't endorse this because of their distributor agreements but it is implicitly understood that this is allowed and encouraged.
So basically like most commercial software?

let me get this straight. they are selling that movie but they also accept btc donations? New paradigm. Legitimizing torrenting supported by BTC donations. They can't endorse this because of their distributor agreements but it is implicitly understood that this is allowed and encouraged. New paradigm is double dipping and fleecing n00bs? Lovely

A wall was added at 390 and traders dump like crazy every time we go up a few dollars. So i'd say no.

This is the future. Take your smartphone and pay for your groceries, tip your waiter, donate to your favorite artists and support worthy causes like the fight against disease and poverty. The technology is here. The infrastructure is being built at a rapid pace. The only thing that is lagging (as usual) is our collective operating system - our culture. So spread the word. I can't find many better ways how to show Bitcoins amazing potential to people than by donating ANY amount of money in seconds to causes like this one.

The market has arrived at a "high noon", will the bulls have the strength to break resistance?

Wall removed. Now just stop dumping for a few hours and let it break 400.
