As a collector of DVD's.. I've taken the hobby of swapping out the covers in favor of custom artwork, and even converting Snapper cases to Clamshell cases... I'd visit this one site where you'd pay for access to download both the custom work and converted covers... and now the movie studios had the fucking site shut down... fucking cunts.
DVD Cover Art website shut down by the movie industry

TripleH reports us that the DVD Cover site
www.dvdcoverart.com has been shut down because of legal issues. TripleH reports "The movie industry is at it again, this time they are going after DVD Cover Sites. DVD Cover art has been temporarily shut down by the movie studios. Apparently using the images for creating custom DVD covers are a form of copyright infringement. The movie industry must be getting pretty desperate now for going after DVD Cover Sites".
We can read the following message on the temporary DVDCoverArt forum:
SITE STATUS here - plus: forum reopened, for now
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
official party line: the site is currently closed while we deal with any pending legal issues. We cannot say anything else, other than we hope to have the, resolved soon and the site back online ASAP.
We'd like to leave the forum open even while the site is closed, but if people do not behave we'll have no choice but to close it again.
Thanks for your patience and cooperation
