bissbox video on demand

Fancy starting off the new year by purchasing a film or two rather than watching clips online so i was just wondering if there was any legal issues with this kind of thing? pornography on my computer etc.

many thanks

Good Question, i'd be very interested to know if anyone is using this servie.

Bazinga!!

There's nothing illegal about having porn on your computer, as long as it's legal porn (no paedophilia etc) and not been downloaded illegally.

Can't say I know anything about blissbox specifically though.

when it comes to downloading, as long as its not considered "extreme" (luckily, wikipedia has a rundown for you - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_pornography) You can have anything as long as its for personal use.

but to buy DVDs / B lurays / VHS / Laserdisc(!) in the UK, it has stricter laws. (not sure on importing)

The following content is not acceptable:

  • any material which is in breach of the criminal law
  • material likely to encourage an interest in abusive
  • sexual activity (eg paedophilia, incest) which may include depictions involving adults role-playing as non-adults
  • the portrayal of any sexual activity, whether real or simulated, which involves lack of consent
  • the infliction of pain or physical harm, real or (in a sexual context) simulated. Some allowance may be made for mild consensual activity
  • any sexual threats or humiliation which do not form part of a clearly consenting role-playing game
  • the use of any form of physical restraint which prevents participants from withdrawing consent, for example, ball gags
  • penetration by any object likely to cause actual harm or associated with violence
  • activity which is degrading or dehumanising (examples include the portrayal of bestiality, necrophilia, defecation, urolagnia)

These laws also cover hentai or other animation types.
