In order to access the digital version of the movie promised as a reward, they learned, they’d have to sign up for an account at Flixster—and even then, they’d only be able to stream the movie, not download it.

In statement released to the L.A. Times about the refund, a Warner Bros. representative described the move as part of the studio’s diligent work “to ensure that all the Veronica Mars backers have a great experience.”

Like so many times before, this too proves that the entertainment industry has a very twisted way to define "great experience". This, of course, does not apply to everybody who knows that another source provides a truly great experience: the Pirate Bay already offers it. Without DRM and easy to download.
