morally dubious perhaps - but in the absence of alternatives what choice is
there ?

What's a giganews account? (a more expensive monthly subscription to
ntl broadband no doubt - what £30pm?)
I've only got a mac with 80GB hard drive - whats the best way/place/
free software to download films from and rip to disk ( a whole new
discussion I guess + one thats probably illegal - I'll blame you guys
for corrupting me).

Also whats 'Full HD' as compared to 'HD Ready'? If your TV is HD ready
and for example you connect a £400 HD DVD to it (or your Sky box),
press play do you get an the full HD experience?
I'm relatively new to this so please bear with me - the more I look
into it the more complicated (and expensive it gets).


Full HD 1920x1080
HD ready 1366x768 (though there are variations on this which purport
to be HD ready

HD Ready means it is able to display a HD signal, it may downscale it
though.
