Re: [videoblogging] Veoh article

2006-04-22 Thread nathan.freitas




The problem with Veoh is not ideals but execution. We all want to make a 
living, but they are just a bit too obvious about it. Yes, products, 
consumption and desire are integral parts of our lives, but to exploit 
these traits without consent, especially when its conveniently timed 
with the raising of a 12 million dollar round of investment (from time 
warner and diesney ilk no less), is bad form.

If they've got a decent product, then god speed for them, but what I've 
seen so far is just a bad excuse for a YouTube wannabe. Make something 
that rocks and makes me happy and I will be a fan. So far the only 
reason I use Veoh is to see Steve Garfield's monkey picture.

 to a Porche Website.

The content had been up there for a while. Josh Kinberg and I noticed it during SXSW (a month before the thing here) and as David noted, he'd seen it 4 months ago. Since nobody here really uses the service there's no telling how long it was up there. They certainly had many of my videos that had dropped from my RSS feed already.

I wasn't accusing anyone of committing a crime, just questioning taste

I'm actually a big fan of Veoh's desktop player, social networking, and 
p2p distribution technology, which I am guessing/hoping where most of 
their true value is.

Through no personal interest except sheer irritation, I'd like to layto rest this rumor of the convenient timing of Veoh's content hijackvis-a-vis their investment announcement.As I recall it, the hoo-ha over Veoh's hijacking people's content
happened about a week before the announcement of the funding. Perhapsthat content had been in there a week or two before anybody in thisgroup noticed. We then had the vehement discussion that everyone knows
about, it was even picked up by some non-group bloggers and got somepress.A few days later came the VC announcement.Did the presence of the misappropriated content mislead a VC intoinvesting in Veoh? Several people in this group have implied or baldly
stated as much.However, I would be extremely surprised if it were true. It would takea really stupid, impulsive VC to make an investment decision based onthe content present on the site over a brief period of time. They
would also have to have been completely out of touch with the world ofonline video not to have noticed the fuss over Veoh in this group andelsewhere.Things happen fast in high-tech investment, but not that fast, and
these folks are not stupid. You don't dispose of $12 million withoutdue diligence, which takes time, and means a lot more than a glance atVeoh's site.So can we please drop this angle of the discussion as silly and
irresponsible? You are, after all, making quasi-criminal chargesagainst the executives of Veoh, accusing them of acting todeliberately mislead investors. There are laws against libel, even onthe Internet.

Well, I have submitted my feed to all nature of aggregating sites/services including
DTV, and Veoh is the only one ever to have me put code in my feed
specifically for them to verify my ownership. 

iTunes, as far as I know, still allows anyone to submit any feed they like.

He said Veoh from the beginning had wanted to upload only content from RSS feeds which users had explicitly submitted to Veoh. He said Veoh had required publishers submitting feeds to insert a specific snippet of code verifying they were owners of the feed. However, he said Veoh's process was bugged, and wasn't identifying which content was owned by the submitters and which wasn't. As a result, when outsiders submitted copyrighted content, Veoh ended up uploading it when it shouldn't have. He said he has since nuked all content that hasn't been adequately submitted.

rewriting history so soon?

Veoh allows distribution through it's P2P network but, apart from that,
what transcoding was involved? It's the original file that gets cached and distro'd.

Apple provides no linkback facility in iTunes, which has also built in transcoding 
for transfer of vids to the (very commercial) iPod.

I'm sure Veoh will/does provide statistics to it's users.I just cannot swallow an argument that puts P2P technology for independent media makers as being less significant than download statistics, especially when that P2P platform is also building a model to compensate media makers... financially and by giving them reach/exposure.

Re: [videoblogging] veoh article with interesting statements from the company

2006-04-20 Thread WWWhatsup





FLV previews of content is a recent development, prompted by the YouTube envy, no doubt,
 not entirely thought out before introduction, I'll give you that. I myself would have preferred
full flv previews, given the option.

But the actual Veoh distro does no transcoding.

they transcode the mp4, mov, wmv to a flash file that is not even complete, it is a derivative work because they cut off bits...


You are able to watch the full thing if you sign-up and download their player. Not cool, but you are able to see the full thing after jumping through their hoops.

I'm talking about HTTP stats that would be known to the server serving up the content.
If Veoh has taken your content via RSS unbeknownst to you and is redistributing it from their servers as though you are one of their users who has opted in to the service (but you are not), then you would never know your content is being redistributed there and would have zero knowledge of the viewing statistics.

[videoblogging] veoh article with interesting statements from the company

2006-04-19 Thread Anne Walk



http://www.siliconbeat.com/entries/2006/04/18/controversial_video_hosting_company_veoh_raises_125m.html
He said Veoh from the beginning had wanted to upload only content from
RSS feeds which users had explicitly submitted to Veoh. He said Veoh
had required publishers submitting feeds to insert a specific snippet
of code verifying they were owners of the feed. However, he said Veoh's
process was bugged, and wasn't identifying which content was owned by
the submitters and which wasn't. As a result, when outsiders submitted
copyrighted content, Veoh ended up uploading it when it shouldn't have.
He said he has since nuked all content that hasn't been adequately
submitted.rewriting history so soon?-- Anne Walkhttp://loadedpun.com
