Despite stringent security, the new James Bond film, 'Quantum of Solace', has already been found on torrent sites all over the net -- prior to the US release date. While it's only a cam, torrenters have hailed this as another blow against the MPAA's efforts, which included searching bags and purses, and using night vision goggles to observe the audience.

However, all the lobbying, bag searches and James Bond-style night vision goggles in the world don’t seem to make any difference to the availability of pirate material. Quantum of Solace is already available on the Internet in Telesync format (video recorded via a good camcorder, with audio added from a ‘direct’ source, such as a T-Loop). It has been available for a few days in French and maybe even another couple of languages but it is now fully available in English, with what many will consider to be a half-decent picture quality.

Having seen a copy of the film, it's quite obvious that it has been recorde3d from the booth (very stable, no people getting up in the movie and walking around) and the sound is crystal clear, so must have been taken direct from the sound system back-up analog out. The message is clear, It's not just your usual groups of koreans and chinese (not being racist here, just following the stereotype), Cinema's need to step up their efforts in finding staff who are making a fair few bucks selling their own cam copies, its almost like wanerbrothers, or 20c fox are pirating their own movies!!! As for having seen it on the internet, i have already seen it at the cinema three times!
