considering a lot of the slop people really want to watch is focused on hi def production and special effects I don’t even understand how it still exists
The audio of a TS is captured with a direct connection to the sound source (often an FM microbroadcast provided for the hearing-impaired, or from a drive-in theater).
TS releases do have good audio. Cams in general have a lot of visual problems though; poor color accuracy, warping, incomplete frames, sometimes people moving around, things like that. Also pretty much every cam I’ve seen lately has been covered in ads for sketchy gambling sites throughout the entire runtime. None of this makes for a good viewing experience.
Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cam with subtitles available.
I’d rather wait for at least a 1080 webrip than to suffer through the cruddy audio and visuals of a cam. Heck, I don’t even like going to the theatre, why would I pretend to do that in 480p with early 2000’s cellphone audio?
Back in the early days, watching a cammed movie was tolerable because the 480p rips that we’d otherwise get were so heavily compressed that there’d be hardly any step up in quality. It was also usually the fastest way I could find a new movie.
These days, releases get leaked from inside the studio all the time, at full quality, so there’s not really any legitimate need for cammed movies anymore.
I would not say “all the time” at least the movies I watch, but it is mostly only some months (if even) until a movie is available on some streaming service and gets ripped in 4k
I ended up using a cam for a movie from 2009 to check to see if the movie had differences between the theater version and the DVD release. It didn’t but it was neat that I could, 15 years later.
So I respect it, but also, good god will I never actually watch them for the actual movie itself.

All of them have really bad audio and as such, they’re completely useless.
Even TS releases?

Reminds me of the good ol’ days in the 90s. Watching cam recordings and people standing up or taking loudly the entire movie.
Haven’t watched a cam recording in decades. Don’t plan on doing that again.

If you’re going to be using Black American culture, you should at least try do it right.
And, no, it’s not just English. This was popularized through Black Southerners.
It’s probably a typo
I know it’s probably a typo, but it’s worth correcting in case people don’t know.
Just to be sure, I mispelled it on purpose in reply to @pudcollar@hexbear.net
Clever.
