If he encoded them from DVD sources they wouldn't look nearly so good. :p

Edit: Plus it would be mostly pointless to encode and upscale DVD video to 720p or 1080p anyway, when DVD video is only 480p...

I assume he's connecting his STB to his PC via FireWire and getting content through that, but I don't get how Goose is able to get movies...Goose, does your cable company not use 5C encryption?
