    George Luca's takes the gloves off around Disney! The White Slaver of Children...

    I am sure that people have seen this in the news. So before this interview magically disappears from the internet forever. It's worth watching. Personally I completely agree with Mr Luca's and his view on Disney and what they focused on in the latest episode of Star Wars...

    Movie Studios, who is left?

    So who is left? We know that Disney is out. Fox is one. Who controls the Bond flicks and the Star Trek movies? Collectively they are +30 disks that would be great in the K store! I see that the James Bond rights might be changing hands? There was an earlier thread that Pixar was leaving...

    Interior shots of K-1500

    Hopefully this doesn't violate anything with K, but thought people would find this interesting. Warranty on the server is long-gone. Has a VERY failed power supply that is oozing from the caps. Pretty interesting setup, with some proprietary K parts. I should note that the interior photo is...

    Parts for 1U server

    Are repair parts commonly available? Also, have there been any evolutionary changes to 1U servers? I note that they have been around for several years, so I would assume that with larger drivers, processors must be getting updated, or the tech is getting a little long in the tooth? If one...

    New 1U server in second location

    I have purchased a legacy 1U server which I will keep in my summer house. As of now, I don't have a carousel, so the only thing I can replicate that is viewable, are DVD's and downloads. I ran out of space a while ago on my existing 1U, but have for some reason not been able to control myself...

    K system and Tivo

    Ok, so I was reading the bit on Mozaex and came to think what I would really want. What would be amazing, would be a Kscape that integrates with Tivo. With the pending release of the Tivo Mega, http://custom.tivo.com/mega_products.html, the company is starting to get a little closer to K in...

    Streaming Musis service

    with all that is going on with steaming music, Tidal Nd now Meeidians new MQA technology, it would seem right that K add a streaming music function. Being as a little handheld can stream hirez, I would think such an addition would be relatively simple.

    How Disney taunts us... We have the tech to join you... but never will....bwahaaaa!!

    So I can stream via UV for most studios, except for one. But I can now also stream from that one! http://www.engadget.com/2014/11/04/disney-movies-anywhere-android/ But for some reason, even if I pay up, I will not allow you to cross swords!

    Is K takeout bait now?

    With the lawsuit behind them, why wouldn't someone buy K? With all the private equity/tech money out there today and financing almost free, why not take a flyer on the little guy? I look at K and think that their database of movie data and their highly evolved user interface make them a...

    where do you buy your content?

    Hello, Just wondering if I am missing something. To date, I buy 90% of my bluray and DVD content on Amazon. Any reason to try something else? I appreciate the convienence of the K store, but don't need instant gratification for all movies. So, where do you buy your content? Thank you

    dv700 rack depth question.

    Hi, Does anyone have a dv700 mounted in a rack? If so, do you need a deeper rack or does it clear the back and hang out the back given that it's 17.5 inches wide.? Thank you
