For years I've been saying it should happen. I think I've even said it was inevitable. But now that I've read about it, I don't believe it.
Warner Bros.' home entertainment arm has inked a deal to
use BitTorrent to distribute its movies and television programs, including releases that are day-and-date with their related DVDs. Perhaps most astonishing is Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group prez Kevin Tsujihara acknowledging that while BitTorrent can reduce pirated material through filtering, they can't expect 100% success: "BitTorrent has shown us that they have very good filtering technology. But nothing's perfect, and we know that."
So, um... who's next?
