Why in the #$%! do people insist on likening Cinavia to a real world virus? It does not even come close to fitting the definition of a computer virus.
Listen close: There is no CURE for Cinavia because there is nothing to "cure". Think of it more as a macaroni noodle in a pot of spaghetti. Relatively few people will notice it. A couple will get upset. But the majority will never even know it's there.
Anyone who continues to compare it to a life-taking diseas needs to turn of their &#@$ing PS3/computer and go outside to see what the real world and suffering is.

If you read the entire post, I was ONLY comparing it to how Penicillin was discovered because earlier in the tread, it was mentioned that a competitive company
discovered, by accident, how to circumnavigate around the Cinavia watermark! I also mentioned, serveral times, that the developers have to "crack" the Cinavia code before we start making backups of the movies with Cinavia embeded in the audio track(s). Eventually, hopefully not, Cinavia will be in allot of the movies we want to backup. Then, paying users of Slysoft's products, will start complaining allot more about Cinavia calling it different things. Hopefully,
Slyce will eventually have a solution to Cinavia, eventually, but not when it is initially released! If the posting is NOT using foul language, which you did or referring to any
life threating disease, then the posting should stay and not taken down because someone has an anger managment issue, or doesn't like what is being talked about!
No where in my post did I compare it to ANY life threatening disease. I ONLY was comparing it to how Penicillin was discovered, and I used the word "cure" as a
figure of speach!
Definition of "Figure of Speech" :
any expressive use of language, as a metaphor, simile, personification, or antithesis, in which words are used in other than their literal sense, or in other than their ordinary locutions, in order to suggest a picture or image or for other special effect.
If, for some unkown reason, you think that the word "cure" refers to some sort of "virus" or some sort of "life threatening disease", then I fail to see your reasoning! Maybe, just maybe, you're reading too much into my posting! Does the music group "The Cure" also gets you upset? Not their music, but just their name? What about "Curing" meats to preseve them and makes them taste good, also makes you upset?

As far as being a "Computer Virus", in a INDIRECT way Cinavia is some sort of "virus"/"computer virus" : A computer virus is a software program written with malicious intentions. There are number of computer viruses that can impede the functioning of your computer system, and/or DVD/BD player. Cinavia will not allow you to make a copy of a movie that has this watermark on it. Cinavia is some sort of "Code" preventing you to make a legitimate copy of the movie you own.
I DO NOT understand the complexity of the Cinavia "code"/watermark imbedded in the audio section of movies, but I DO follow rules of the forums. The Slysoft developers strictly stated NOT to compare Cinavia to any life threating disease(s), which I did not!
I would suggest that if you read something that offends you, which adheres to the forum rules, then just ignor it instead of getting angry, taking things out of contect, and posting irrational remarks about it. I would consider this a type of "bullying", especially when you have to use you BIG/foul words, which is against the forum rules!
I DO see what the real world is going through, and I don't need to read it on the internet or watch TV because I live and work in the "real world". I DO NOT like it, but I don't loose my temper and get angry over it because that method really blinds people and then people act on "feelings" and may take it out on innocent other people! That is why the world is the way it is today! Everyone is telling everyone what to do and not to do, and to see it their way because "their way" is the right way! If there is anything I can do to HELP people with their ordeals/problems, I attempt to talk to them about it and see if they want my help, if not, I leave them to themselfs! You cannot force people to do anything! I am a part time volunteer counselor assistant at a facility that deals with low income/no income people with substance abuse, have a criminal backgound who also have some sort of mental illness. I do not get paid for this, I do this to HELP people who are not as fortunate as I am, and this is not always that easy to do! I also have a full time day career as an insurance analyst with over eighteen years of experience with the different companies I've been employed with. I also assit the people I work with/for with any type of computer problems, whether it be a hardware or software problem. 8)
