I like the film scan preservations very much. However if i didn’t donate to a project i’m not entitled to a copy. If a creator/preservationist says to not share a scan i respect their wishes. I saw Lion King, i didn’t download the link because its disrespectful of donors and the project creator. I didn’t download Terminator 2 because i didn’t contribute to that scan. People asked me for the Raiders scan i said no. It was asked to not be distributed. But someone else posted it on Reddit anyway a place where i don’t have an account.
Making the myspleen materials more exposed isn’t the best idea either there is a reason its a private tracker.
Getting donors to stop donating because of drawing the eyes of the rights holders is not a good thing, nor is getting OT and the entire fanediting/restoration community nuked from orbit. For one person who thinks they are being cool and the rules the community has followed for decades no longer apply.
