On: South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

[kevcampb]

"Due to copyright and other legal issues, this South Park episode cannot be viewed in your Country"

So yes, banned in China (Hong Kong)

Same message in Vietnam. I don't think it has anything to do with the ban.

Yeah, not available in the UK or ireland either.

Same in Germany, as it always has been.

[ahartmetz → probably_wrong]

But you can watch it in German or English on their official German presence southpark.de.

Sadly, the video quality there isn't quite what I would get from pirated versions - to put it mildly.

And considering that cartoon style videos don't even need much bandwidth for good quality to begin with, this seems really weird.

[ahartmetz → mAritz]

Hm? The quality is just fine IME if you set it to high / HD / whatever.

[mAritz → ahartmetz]

Maybe I'm just blind. I found a bunch of font settings, some color settings (backgrounds etc.) and language. But no quality setting.

[godelski → kevcampb]

Is it just this episode or all episodes?

[gsq → godelski]

all episodes. search "south park" or "南方公园"(south park in Chinese) on video website of China, you got nothing.
