zml.com — The website Hollywood doesn't want you to know about

They've done a pretty good job of keeping it under the dome of silence until now.

I only learned of it last evening when I read an excellent article in the latest issue of The Economist about Hollywood and its hapless attempts at harnessing the Internet for movie delivery.

Long story short: zml.com does what Hollywood should have done but didn't: Offer an easy-to-use website featuring thousands of movies — including the latest — that download superfast with high quality to personal computers, iPods or other handheld devices, or can be burned to DVD.

Prices range from $2-$3 and there's no DRM (digital rights management) so you're free to do whatever you like with the movies.

Oh, I almost forget: It's a pirate site so the studio lawyerbots are doing their level best to shut it down.

Witness the message below

when I tried to go directly to zml.com.

Try it yourself if you don't believe me.
