"Here" - you mean in US? I suspect that with this kind of stuff there can be some legal issues; anyway if any of US/UK webmasters is reading this conversation, please register my vote for it too :-).

> A LOT of videos now-a-days are encoded using it and it is a really good file format.
Let's look at TBP: 6200+ sites provide WMV and only 566 DivX (plus 84 XVid whatever it means); and of those which provide DivX most provide WMV too (I took a random sample and 7 out of 10 sites with DivX also provided WMV), which leaves us with about 3% of sites with DivX and without WMV. Not that much IMHO.
As for format: DivX/XVid = MPEG-4, right? Then QuickTime7 (which I have anyway) is supposed to play it; I'm wondering if it really can do it; do you know link of any free clip in DivX/XVid so I can try it (or maybe if you have QuickTime you can try it yourself and tell)?

> is there really someone who havent got all codecs? :)
Me for instance. I hate installing all the garbage that comes with codecs, having to deal with adware/spyware, Windows slowing down to a crawl and/or starting to crash on regular basis. On my main laptop, I have ONLY WMP, QT and Flash plug-in, that's it; not even DivX/XVid. if the site has something different - usually it's tough luck for them, unless they have something REALLY special.
Interesting that this "REALLY special site with non-standard codecs only" didn't happen to me at least during last 2-3 years; I've noticed that usually sites that like things like XVid/DivX are Russian (or other 3rd-world) ones and there is usually nothing to see anyway :-).

Wow! Probably I should try to get such a 30" Apple beast; I used to think such things are in $5k+ range, but at $1800 (well, it will be more here) it is not prohibitively expensive.
And just curious - do you know how much that 3840x2400 thing cost?

I know, but content (and names) of these 2 sites are THAT similar that I've thought it might be just an overlook (or recent domain name acquisition, or whatever else).
Thanks for the advice anyway :-).

Thanks. I was wondering because NudeInPublic and NudeInPublic.tv have VERY similar concept; even wondering if one just stole content from another one.

Wow (honestly, I didn't even know such a beast exists)! But still 3500 pixel picture width should be beyond even your capabilities :-) (and when downscaling with browser, quality suffers, I'm sure you won't object :-) ). So I'm continuing to be curious - do you like anything above your 2560x1600 pixels?

I see, thanks for commentary. But it looks more of discussion on "why pictures are better than vids" rather than "why download all the vids you won't watch anyway" :-).
Also a question about resolution: I've seen comments like "this site is great, they have pics with resolution of 3500 px width" or something like this; as an image fun (you certainly sound so :-)), can you tell what are people doing with such big images? They won't fit on screen anyway (and scaling algorithms built-in browsers suck, so quality will suffer); maybe somebody prints them or...?

No problem :-), just looked quite strange to see 2 almost identical complaints within 2 days.

I'd say that it would be a good idea to research this kind of stats BEFORE implementing such a restriction, wouldn't it?
> We know that 100% of our subscribers have JS enabled.
Sure, as you throw away everybody else :-)
> I am not sure of the details of your case
My case is very simple - content of your site isn't unique enough for me to mess with yet another "protection system that magically solves all the problems and doesn't cause any problems except for one single customer".

Are you somehow related to 'boredsurfer'? Or it is just a coincidence that within 2 days 2 different people write almost the same thing?

With about 4-5% of all the users having JavaScript disabled
(see for example here: http://www.thecounter.com/stats/2007/November/javas.php ) I don't see how it can possibly affect only single user if you're speaking about many thousands users. Something doesn't really add up here (could theoretically be that only one user out of 100 having problems complains, but it doesn't look too likely, does it?)

The only question left is - why 99% of other sites can live without these "advanced protection systems which never cause any problems except for one single customer" and your site cannot?
Actually quite a few adult sites cause authentication problems for their users, and as far as I'm concerned I'll never join such a site unless they have content which cannot possibly be found elsewhere.

It is your answer "less than 1/3rd", right? I easily understand that you're getting tired quickly of video, but why do you download that much knowing that you won't view it anyway? Is it because of sites not having reasonably good previews/picture sets to allow to make a good choice, or just because of "download all I can" paradigm, or maybe there is some other reason? Just curious.

I have no idea how it really works on AbbyWinters, so it can work good, but I'm becoming tired of all that modern 'protection' systems with problems in some browsers, sessions expiring and requiring to relogin (and enter picture from code) every half an hour, prompts of "please close all your browser windows before logging in again", temporarily blocked accounts just because of 'protection' system glitches (or because my ADSL got reconnected and my IP has changed in the middle of the session) and so on and so on.
And the funny part is that even if Internet is full of complaints about problems with some site, support still always says "You're the only person experiencing this problem" :-(.
Why some sites can do it simply and properly and some are trying to do some 'protection' at the expense of users (which can easily cost a LOT because of loss of user loyalty)?

At 9.95 it could be not so bad site to keep but lack of search makes it almost unusable :-(.

In addition: I agree that while at 1G/month it would be a rip-off which could easily warrant a refund, but with 1G/day it's more of an inconvenience.

Well, IMO 1G/day isn't too bad; not really good, but not too bad. On some other site I've seen that they're doing it because of password sharing; I think there should be better ways to deal with password sharing, but at least they said so :-(.
Interesting that I've already argued with one guy here on PU that 10G/month isn't a problem for most :-), but IMHO 1G/day is worse in a sense at least for me (while I cannot imagine DL-ing more than 10G from single site/month, I can DL all the stuff I need in one day, and it can easily be more than 1G). So, from my perspective 1G/day is worse than 10G/month :-).

1G/day or 1G/month?
And about CCBill - did you try to tell them that as the essential service restriction wasn't advertised, you can consider disputing transaction via your bank? Occasionally it does help :-)
