Only downside was a crappy search engine, but that's what joox.net was for. :(
Title: Re: Stage 6 is no more? NOOOOOOOO!
Post by: T234 on February 25, 2008, 12:49:40 PM: I just thought of something.

What about if somebody just starts a private site using a public tracker like the pirate bay, only listing and tagging the upload as complete unintelligible gibberish, so as for it to not appear on searches.

Thoughts?

Title: Re: Stage 6 is no more? NOOOOOOOO!
Post by: Shuri on February 25, 2008, 09:33:27 PM: I'm actually pissed off at this. I really, REALLY enjoyed stage6, it was such a great source for obscure music videos and stuff you hadnt seen in years. I don't remember the last time I got pissed at some internet site closing down.

It was such an awesome source for electronic/dance videos. With music channels barely showing videos anymore, stage6 was the bomb for people who grew up with vids.

It was already being polluted with anime fruitcakes and their shitty anime music videos and idiots thinking it was leet to upload full anime seasons and tv series. distinguished mentally-challenged fellows.

Post by: Error Macro on February 27, 2008, 03:38:00 AM: This is seriously depressing news. At least they gave notice; I've been on a download spree for hours now. I've been grabbing every live performance of Garbage and Muse I can find, next up is Radiohead and some others. I don't know if I have enough time for everything :(
Title: Re: Stage 6 is no more? NOOOOOOOO!
Post by: CajoleJuice on February 27, 2008, 03:39:12 AM: How are you downloading right now? It's down!

And did you download my concert? :P
Title: Re: Stage 6 is no more? NOOOOOOOO!
Post by: Error Macro on February 27, 2008, 03:44:27 AM: It's been up and down for the past couple of hours. Their servers are probably being overwhelmed by people doing the same thing I'm doing, ha.

Yep, I downloaded your concert. Thanks for uploading that :bow Awesome, awesome stuff.

Post by: cloudwalking on February 27, 2008, 04:44:54 AM: i was on a nostalgia kick :-[

i didn't watch any tv/movies/concerts on there like everyone else seemed to. if there was a music video i wanted to see that wasn't on youtube i'd go there. but then the search got absolutely horrible as people started uploading more shit like AMV's and i ditched it.
Title: Re: Stage 6 is no more? NOOOOOOOO!
Post by: CajoleJuice on February 27, 2008, 04:45:56 AM: I had to look up what AMV stood for...

We hope that you enjoy using Veoh, and welcome :-)

http://www.veoh.com/stage6.html (http://www.veoh.com/stage6.html)

Nowhere near the ease of use of Stage6, this Veoh crap at least has a lot of stuff I'm interested in (full concerts, music videos, etc.), and maybe even more of it. The search engine is much more useful. The bad part is you have to download their lame software to be able to view larger videos, you have to sign up for an account just to download videos from the main site, and the downloads aren't direct from their server like Stage6. It uses some P2P setup, though the speeds seem to be pretty fast for me so far.

as an example (maybe Cajole can appreciated this ;)), searching for "muse live" would get me much different results on S6 than this: http://www.veoh.com/search.html?search=muse+live&range=a&category=&advSearch=-ingestSourceName%3A%28pixsy+crawldb%29+&numResults=20&view=detail&display=1110&type=v (http://www.veoh.com/search.html?search=muse+live&range=a&category=&advSearch=-ingestSourceName%3A%28pixsy+crawldb%29+&numResults=20&view=detail&display=1110&type=v)

look at that:

-Werchter 2001
-Pinkpop 2004
-Montreux 2002
-XFM 2003
-Rock am Ring 2002
-Rock am Ring 2004
-Glastonbury 2004
-Zepp, Tokyo 2001
-Gampel Open Air 2006
-Reading Festival 2006
-MTV Live 2006
-Absolution Tour
