How do movie/ TV scenes do their 1080p HD rips nowadays now that iTunes closed the Requiem well?
Is there any way to get truly lossless DRM-free 1080p copies of things now, besides blu ray?
720p is still possible, but not ideal

bluray isn't lossless, it's just very high bitrate
scene releases are just tv rips (sdtv/hdtv), streaming service rips (web-dl), and consumer media rips (dvd/bluray)

(oh, and cam/ts recordings, if you're into that kind of thing)

I'm probably misusing lossless in that context, by that I meant "stripping the DRM without affecting the quality of the source file at all." Requiem could do that, everything else I've seen doesn't quite do it.

oh i see, you're talking about "1:1" copies versus transcoding say, an HDMI capture or screen capture
i don't know about these kind of details

Amazon rips are bae
Almost as good as HQ bluray rips

How are they done though?
As much as I appreciate the work scene groups put in to releasing stuff, I prefer to do it myself

last time too many people figured out how to rip from amazon the exploit got patched. it's a private method now, so figure it out yourself.

that's the downside to releasing stuff like that, there's nothing stopping amazon from reverse engineering the hack software to figure out how it works, and even use it to test possible fixes to break it without doing anything live
