Star Wars Episode II debuts on Net

Written by Petteri Pyyny @ 10 May 2002 2:26 User comments (1)

As most of you probably already know, bootleg copies of popular movies tend to appear almost immediately on the Net after their U.S. theatre premiere, but now the trend seems to be that movies get released on the Net before they hit the big screen.
Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the clones can already be found from the Net in VideoCD format, as a "telesync". Meaning that the movie has been shot using hi-quality digital camcorder and direct line-in audio giving it relatively good overall quality.

And the movie will debut in the U.S. movie theatres within a week :-) For some screenshots and the original article, please visit this site.
