If more than two viewers sit in front of TV, film retrieval costs twice as much

The Microsoft patent for the " regulation of content distribution based on the number of audience "is based on such monitoring technology. The patent application describes the core functions of the method as:

• The technology will allow rights holders to calculate the license fees based on the number of spectators.
• Licenses can be restricted in many ways: the total content may be used only by a particular user multiple times, it must simultaneously pursue only a limited number of users with the content, it may only users of a certain age to be present.
• The audience will "monitor" the retrieval of the contents, it says in the patent application. Based on these user count certain options can be displayed.

and now to make my quick exit

Did Microsoft say anything about that? Ok.

If they do this, the .gif sums up my thoughts on Xbox One.

Edit - And fuck you, Internet!

German journalism at its worst.
As if Spiegel knows anything about this industry...

So they are kind of admitting that they will spy on us? That's very creepy. Better go disconnect my kinect!

Here's the Hail Mary! Oh it's high and long, the defenseman can't keep up with 3 time veteran One, he's got blazing speed. I've never seen anything like it folks. He catches it! The 30, the 20, he breaks 2 long defenders with a stiff arm and spin, he's at the 5! TOUCHDOWN ONE. What an amazing game for One, setting huge gains and breaking incredible records.
The game is over, One's winning team gives him the MVP in this total blowout:
The WashingtonBlunders win, 152-14
