No matter how many times you explain it, this is the beginning of the end.

I would like to encourage people to see the bright side of things. It happened and the site is still here...

If you start to look at things that way, the Earth could collide with the Sun before that happens anyway and then it's a moot point :wink:

Why do I hear the lyrics: "It's the end of the org as we know it."

Seriously though I don't think this is the end of the org. Phade has done a great job and we will have to keep our fingers crossed.

That gives me an idea for a video.

I was hoping it was going to give somebody the idea I was thinking. I didn't want to be one the one to do it. :roll: Anyways we can still host our videos on other websites and give links through pms and emails for people that are interested and still do op exchanges as well.

The org may be doomed to be shut down. But not anytime soon, for example, someone finally was sued for uploading on Bittorrent. The shocking part was that it wasn't related to the Advent Children release, on Bittorrent, when 60,000 people were getting it the second day it was on that. Whenever the org is shut down, there are still going to be distro of videos privately, or through conventions and clubs.

I would not petition the Artists themselves, if you must petition, because the Artists make a very small fraction of profit from record sales, they mainly make money from concerts and merchandise such as shirts. I mean most of the newer bands prefer that you listen to them so you will go see them in concert. There is easy way to win this argument, unless you can find a full proof way to say this is creative expression or something like that. The bottom line is that they could do worse and they could have taken this even farther than they have.

Not to mention, if anything AMVs have CAUSED me to buy more music, so I can listen to some of the great songs I hear in videos in the car/etc.

If the record companies shut down the org, then they're stupider than Fed-Ex, suing the guy who runs fedexfurniture.com. :?
