As in title, i’m just wondering whether it is possible to rip movie from cinema if one has got unsupervised access to cinema’s hardware. Maybe someone did that? I’m not talking about caming, i’m talking about making a digital copy of premiere material.

No, the file size is in the terabytes (if not Petabytes) it has super heavy DRM (the cinemas have to pay upfront for a number of showings usually and when they are done the movie is locked) and the file type is a problem as well.

That wasn’t a joke

Over 500 Gigabyte for one movie. The size obviously depends on the length but also on the amount of visual stuff and sound things they might add. Also quality requested. 3D also increases the size heavily.

Right but 517 GB is ~0.05% of a petabyte. Nobody is saying 517 GB is small, but it’s a far cry from petabyte(s) of storage
