Comment Re:The Surprised Dutch Prosecutor (Score 1) 83

If you are running drugs for $10mil a month.... feds/gov bust you, seize all your stuff, and you go to jail. but If you are a bank making $10 Bil a month and defraud the whole world and almost destroy the global economy.... feds/gov slap you with a fine for 10% of 1 years profits.... So crime is ok as long as the government gets it cut.

You borrow someone's bitcoins... say 1,000 of them. Sell them high, expecting them to fall. You sell them for 500 Each so you have 500,000 dollars. Wait for them to fall in price. Then buy back the 1,000 bitcoins at 200.00 each and spend 200,000 dollars. Return the 1,000 bitcoins back to the original owner and pocket the 300,000 Profit.

Yes. I use UPnP almost exclusively. And I don't play Media right from the nas, I have a PS3 Media Center setup to convert any video on the fly as it plays. And I don't pirate movies so I don't worry about Cinavia....

Comment No media (Score 5, Insightful) 294

I used my ps3 for media as well as occasional gaming. PS4 lack of streaming media support that does not originate from Sony's pay sites is a real minus for me. At least with the ps4 released, I can snap up used PS3 for media consoles in the bedrooms now.
