If
you
are
a
person,
who
regularly
download
movies
through
torrents
and
other
forms
on
internet,
it
is
likely
to
come
to
an
end.
At
least,
it
could
be
not
possible
for
you
to
get
pirated
copies
of
Kannada
films.
Well,
the
Sandalwood
has
woken
up
to
tackle
the
piracy
by
tying
up
with
an
international
website,
EggUp.com.
The
Hawaii-based
website,
which
was
launched
last
month,
has
joined
hands
with
the
Kannada
film
industry.
According
to
them,
the
portal
will
provide
a
platform
to
securely
sell,
distribute
films
online.
The
filmmakers
can
upload
the
movies
on
their
own
and
generate
revenue
through
pay-per-view
revenue
model.
The
digitally-encrypted
data
will
be
secured
as
an
'.Egg'
file.
It
will
be
instantly
available
on
iPhone,
iPad,
Digital
Download
and
Instant
Streaming.
A
filmmaker
can
upload,
edit,
fix
the
price
for
his
content
and
can
do
lot
more.
