WWE Cracking Down On Past Bootleg Videos
Story By: Keith Wilcutt
April 29, 2004

Thanks to PWinsider for the following:

As we approach the debut of WWE 24/7 Video on Demand service and more and more classic footage being utilized for World Wrestling Entertainment DVDs, expect to see the WWE monitoring those who sell what WWE views as bootlegged versions of material they own the rights to.

They will be looking for anything that falls into one of their various libraries purchased over the years including WCW, ECW, the AWA, and Mid-Atlantic and Georgia Championship Wrestling to make sure nobody else is selling videos containing that footage.

The WWE will be employing 3 people who are responsible for seeking out websites and online auctions including Ebay that sell material owned by WWE.

If they were gonna go after those bunch of dickheads then they would have already.

As for the Ebay, they can't stop people selling their own legit copies so they are fu</>cked there.

OK, so I'm still confused on this 24/7 thing. Is it like a channel that you pay a monthly fee for or is it like a PPV kind of thing where you select a match you want to see and you buy it?

it's not "getting paid to surf the net" unless a literary historian is "getting paid to read books"
