Abrams' Star Trek Film on a Flash Drive

Abrams' version of Star Trek is credited as a wildly successful reboot of the sci-fi series, despite of some weird plot holes. Now that the film will be released on physical media (i.e. DVD and Blu-ray) on November 17th. At the same time, a limited quantity will also be made available for fans who would love to own a digital copy of the movie on a flash drive that resembles the signature Starfleet communicator badge.

The individually numbered flash badge has 4GB, but only 1GB of which is taken up by the DivX-certified DRM protected movie. You can authorize unlimited layback on up to five devices, and you are allowed to burn the movie on DVD. Seriously though, the publisher could have compressed the Blu-ray version into a 720p that will make good use of all the storage rather than waste it for nothing. Regardless, you still have plenty of time to decide whether to drop £17.99 on a so-called movie collectible.
