We discuss [url="https://torrentfreak.com/napster-founders-movie-plan-will-fuel-torrent-sites-theaters-say-160316/"]Screening Room[/url], the founder of Napster’s plan to bring movies to your living room on release day; the BPI’s [url="https://torrentfreak.com/bpi-hits-200-million-google-takedowns-calls-for-notice-and-stay-down-160324/"]prodigious anti-piracy efforts[/url] and why the future may doom them to failure; and the [url="https://torrentfreak.com/google-first-amendment-doesnt-protect-mpaas-secrets-160325/"]ongoing war between Google and the MPAA[/url].

Finally, Ashwin and Dave share what they’ve learned since the early days of BitTorrent, hint at where things are headed in the world of online TV, point to a couple of interesting developments in the P2P world, and wonder if maybe free is not the future, after all.
