Ew, camrips
I think camera icon there at the top is to represent the video not camrips, because they specificly say DVDs under the supliers. Scene has not done many camrips in fact looking at predb here https://predb.me/?search=camrip only 2 shown 2003/2011. At the top is SCENE at the bottom is P2P.
Officially scene does not like P2P, unofficially however many scene members are themselfs from P2P and upload to P2P. Especially those at the top of the scene like top sites ops. But most leaks from the scene are done from couriers those who fxp releases from server to server.
Also for those who don't know, demo scene to the scene members is like defcon to hackers. This is the time they can all be in public. Most if not all demo scene people are some way connected to the scene or even run there own groups. There are many examples of such groups. Just look at some scene notices.
I think this was probably designed to scare people away from piracy. If people think that pirated content will all be basic camrips they will be less likely to pirate.
