Piracy of the Sith

It sure didn't take long for the movie Revenge of the Sith to be available for download into your living room. You probably can't get the full theater experience from the "work print copy" available through the internet. However, this didn't stop more than 16,000 people from downloading the film. By the way, this activity is a copyright violation.

Revenge of the Sith leaked online states that: "DVD pirates are preparing to flood the market with illegal copies of the film" and "Sleeves for pirate copies of the film and discs with director George Lucas' introduction have been seized in London."

Another apparent leak can be found in Star Wars III Bootleg Hits the Internet. This one looks to be from a video camera in the theater.

Either way, I'm guessing that somewhere, there are more than a few people trying to stop the pirates from spreading the loot.
