Eyes on the Screen
DHB received a C&D from Blackside and have taken down the torrents. This casts things in a new light. It won't be hundreds of screenings across the U.S.; it may be very few. It's back to the prior situation of those who happen to have copies in their library, along with the few who had the foresight to download it quickly. Nelson phoned DHB and got the scoop. Gavin will blog an update.
