Blu-ray “Managed Copies”: December 4th.  Players that actually support this crap: 0.

Remember high school and all of the various fads and gimmicks that flowed like water out of dam? Ya, it was that evident.

Essentially it is another way movie studios and labels somehow get away with controlling how we use our purchased content. The way this service works is when copying a Blue-ray disc, the player sends out a...

Whether it be solar chargers, wind power, or good ‘ol classic battery power, we need a way to bring energy on the go. Similarly, Energizer has been a household name for decades, providing reliable energy on the run. But is their credibility about to take a major turn downward? Apparently, Energizer’s...
