Feinstein and internet media

Recommended Posts

Guest Jimbo

This was the most appropriate forum I could think of, so feel free to move the thread if you'd like...

 

I've heard Rob Feinstine has been pretty active in pursueing tape traders and trying to keep them from selling/trading their vids, especially RoH ones.

 

My question is, has he every threatened internet sites who provide shows, matches, and other wrestling media from RoH and other RF Video tapes?

 

It's not very hard to find RoH stuff on the itnernet these days and it's becomign quite easy to get entire shows for download. Of course, it is sorta hard to prosecute those getting files form kazaa, but lots of other message boards are posting this stuff and I'm sure it's disrupting his business a bit.

I have never seen RF go after anyone for trading files at the moment, it wouldnt surprise me to see cetain groups that share ROH shows online get shut down in the future....It not hard to find ROH on the net as about 75% of the shows have been capped by boards or private groups or IRC based rooms

Sean McCartney a.k.a. XPWTVSean of XPWTV.com got a letter in the mail from RF that threatened a lawsuit if he continued selling ROH tapes. He never stopped selling them and didn't get anything since. If you contact him, he put up a scan of the letter he got awhile back, and he'd probably show it to you.

I do think RF would have trouble getting someone by themselves, because doesnt RF also sell footage that they do not own the rights to,

 

they did get a tape trader with the help of the WWE though i think

No, not with the help of WWE.

 

It was the FBI! If that XPWSean guy is flaunting this letter around and is still selling ROH stuff, it's only a matter of time before he's arrested and charged, just like the other guy was. It is probably the stupidist thing anyone can do to sell anything related to RF video.

yup he was caught, i think it had more to do with the wwe tapes than the roh ones though

It had everything to do with the ROH tapes and nothing to do with the WWE tapes.

Ohh maybe i was wrong...i thought it had more to do with the WWF tapes than ROH, i knew RF got the whole thing going but i thought the WWE was also a driving force

I'm about 95% sure it had to do with both ROH *and* WWE tapes.
