A Case of Overstretched IPR Concern?

Yesterday, I posted that ever since signing up to this Chanroblesbar internet bar review some three months ago, I have been hounded by this unrelenting video streaming problem. Video streaming quality is the whole thing if you want make sense of this online review. On my end, I have done everything I possibly could.

Just the other day I engaged the services of a programmer and information specialist to check on all that could possibly contribute to how my PC and connection performs. He checked on all the specs and found them decently over the minimum requirement, but this site's video streaming continued its lethargic pace, a seeming eternal buffering. I have reasons to be confident of my systems: I have tested youtube video streaming and online movies and they seem seamless, and notably they are free sites.

I suspect may be because Chanrobles has always asserted its proprietary copyright interest on these materials (and rightly so, no debate on that), they may have over-secured them with layers of encryption that ultimately substantially compromised its very accessibility. All is not too late though, if Chanrobles  wants to make this so-called revolutionary review format of any use at all, it had better called in its IT people and do the necessary modification to make them truly useful. Right now, it's all but frustrating experience and a huge waste of time.

I wonder if they themselves try to stream their own posted videos.

As a quick help to the enrolled users, Chanrobles should upload audio versions as they are less connection-capacity intensive, after all it is what the lecturers say that audience are most interested in. I doubt videogenics would help a barrister remember any provision come bar exams.
