I don't mind at all that Jay did this, as I know that the reason was to promote videoblogging, and I'm guessing it was made pretty clear that all of the material came from people videoblogging online. If that gets people interested and makes some of them look into videoblogging, then it's a good thing. But then you throw your > tv-compilation back online without changing a thing.

Again, I trust Jay and don't think he was trying to do any harm here. I think this discussion is valuable - can we come up with some alternative ways of doing what was done? Playlists for FireANT? SMIL files and QuickTime Player? ??? Pete -- http://tinkernet.org/ videoblog for the future... ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get Bzzzy!
