I use them to quickly crank out a secure RSS feed and easily add files to it They make it very easy to create media for mobile phones, too, and I've used that occasionally. Most of all, I like how responsive they are to requests for new features and their honesty and transparency. This is one company I'd like to see stick around. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "michael_aivaliotis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > it.

[videoblogging] Re: please consider giving MoveDigital some money TODAY
Here is Mark's reply: Chuck and Tim, 10% of MoveDigital trials become paying customers. We run cash positive on user acquisition even off of Google Adwords. We spend $35-50 to acquire users and they spend $72 within 3 months. We are running infrastructure negative because we need more paying users or more higher paying users. This is a viral, SEO issue. The service is incredibly fair from price and billing perspective. It is now even more so since we just turned the service into a co-op. How do we make our money then? Two ways: ultimately from "software as a service" fees and from retail purchases of MoveDigital in conjunction with various storage devices. Our "decremental" billing patent enables us to operate the service unlike any other entity. The problem is the benefits of the patent are indistinguishable from incremental monthly billing services online because people fall for the sucker punch offers instead of opting to pay for what they use. But in retail the decremental model creates a substantial barrier and gives us a complete lock on that marketing channel. We have the patent on the prepaid phone card for bandwidth. We just need the market to catch up with us. Every gallon of milk you buy is on a prepaid basis. We just need to get people used to buying bandwidth in the same manner. You also ultimately have to assume people value having files over streaming. There is an interactive component to streaming which creates inherent advantages as it relates page views and advertising but for quality, portability and sharing files rule. I believe we do have to address the interactive component and that is why we built our embeddable player. Today the ad model wins. It is so much more profitable to be paid for ads instead of bandwidth. As smart as Akamai looks they look pretty dumb next to Google. But as files approach higher quality levels the ad model begins to break because it's hard to cover the 2GB delivery of a file to a thousand people on a CPM basis. That is why we are beginning to see the blended P2P CDN everywhere. It's mostly wishful thinking. The problem is this story is as old as Kontiki. Users are not willing to give up their upstream bandwidth and wreck their VOIP, etc... without some form of compensation. The easy solution is to stay away from longer form higher quality content but soon people are going to want to distribute the files from their HD camcorders in the same resolution the footage is captured in. The long term reality is that our model works, the short term reality is that we are ahead of our window by a small amount of time. It's worth keeping the service up and I know MoveDigital obviously could benefit from Tim's wisdom. Nominally we need $25K to take care of co-location provider but we really need the full $39K to completely zero out our payables. Other than that we are debt-free and own all of our gear. I hope this helps and am available for further dialogue any time over the weekend.

Not trying to be an ass. Really I'm not, but why don't they just sell more plans? If they can't then the business was never meant to be. If they got initial round of funding then it appears they had a shot at it. In my opinion, for the $99 level you can get your own shared server with domain name. Not sure what the benefit is really. I would rather donate to a fellow video blogger.

Whew. Two videos up. My site is screwed up - I hadn't looked at it since converting it to Show in a Box.

MoveDigital is a great service that makes the lives of podcasters and videobloggers MUCH easier. I learned about them through RocketBoom and have been a VERY happy customer. They are not a perfect company and can't do everything. But what they DO do, they do very well. I feel I have easily got my money's worth and I doubt any of their customers think any differently.

I dunno. Messages like "Hey check out our new project! For more info check the url below" seems to be pretty standard for this group. I don't see how this is any more self-serving than others. Are they advertising their show? Yes, but so what? Haven't we've come to a general understanding that notices of new shows are agreeable here (while notices of every new episode are not)? Have they got a commercial spin/sponsor? Yes, but so what? I think wee passed up the "its got a commercial sponsor and therefore is evil" stage quite a while ago. I've watched a few of this show and really liked it so far. So they have a clever name on a clever topic that ends up calling themselves smart ... so what ... its not like they called it the "yourdumb" show.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Smart videobloggers- look here!!
I'm really, honestly and truly not trying to be a shit, Kathryn. Having a cohesive, strong and viable community is one thing, but tolerating the same old self-serving, canned sales pitches are quite another. Not to put too fine a point on it, but pitching for us to be part of "America's smartest web show" without providing enough context is poor marketing (and I am a marketer by trade) and unskilled conversation.

I'm totally confused... why was this totally self-absorbed? The writer didn't say their show was "smarter" than other web shows, they said that their show profiled smart ideas across the country... sounds like a great idea to me... how can we build a cohesive, strong and viable community if we flame one another at the drop of a hat? --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Jeffrey Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm seriously not trying to be a shit here, but...wow.
