I don't understand.

If people are willing to put up with YouTube quality, then why don't they just watch the GOUT DVDs?

Also, since when did downloading files and burning DVDs imply that one has "technical expertise"?

You don't have to burn it to a DVD to watch it anyway.

Those who for whatever reason want smaller file size there are plenty of free tools that will allow you to do (ruin) that ON YOUR OWN and google/yahoo/duckduckgo/etc can be your friend unless you are too lazy of course....

On the one hand, I agree that it's better to run the movie through Handbrake (or such) on one's own rather than having Harmy do it.

On the other hand... "ruin"? Since when does dropping the file size to something manageable and not ridiculously huge ruin it? You can run 480p video through Handbrake at RF19 or HD quality video through at RF21, and still have extremely good quality picture, while potentially cutting the file size in half or more.

I've been ripping both my own and my parents' movie libraries, and I can personally attest to the quality of the output. Further, not everyone has a 3TB NAS to store movie backups on.

I wouldn't expect Harmy to do it, though.
