1. I'll have the video crunched in about 3 hours.
Edited on Wed Oct-29-03 11:58 PM by Wonk
I'll try hosting it on GFP first, but the last few uploads I've tried only write as 0k, even if I've erased other files first to make room. Hopefully bpilgrim has figured out what else is gobbling up the space before I can write to it.

If someone else can host it (instead of or in addition to putting it on GFP) please PM me and I'll figure out how to get you the file.

on edit: They quicktime movie file will probably be about 150-200 M once it's crunched.

4. I hope you can pull this off
I wanted to watch this REALLY bad and found out it's only available on digital cable in my area. I have analog. I appreciate your effort on this.

9. I was just looking for something to listen to and...
found Radio Left. http://www.radioleft.com/ They have web hosting. I wonder if this might be something for us to look into for the future. It isn't free ut they have a section for non-profit organizations.

I don't know anything about this organization as I'm listening for the first time. Sounds interesting.

12. I like RadioLeft. Good conversations with good guests...
...makes for 2 good hours per day. These guys are very well-informed.

Love the 24/7 ongoing streaming.

Weekend repeats would be a lot better with an accurate program schedule.

13. DU provides free web hosting services now? COOL!
;-)

Seriously, though, I think I've found a temporary solution even if gfp still isn't working. GBnC said that I can use his campaign site to host it until the end of the month or until his 2 G monthly bandwidth quota gets used up for October, whichever comes first.

Once it's up there maybe someone else could mirror it as well?

2. a few places where you can set up free web site w/free web hosting
As far as I know these are totally free. I had started up my own site with tripod a while back but never completely finished it.

If you need help - I can probably help you out - I'm a web designer.

3. This video would blow the monthly bandwidth limits really quickly
if they even allowed enough space on a free account to upload it in the first place, which I doubt they do. Thanks anyway...

6. Can it be cut into sections?
Just a thought from the uninformed peanut gallery.

16. The more the better. Folks should see this. Mirror sites would be nice.
About an hour left before I'll upload it to as many folks as I can. Preference will be given to those who'll mirror it and pass it on as well.

re: "Folks should see this", especially folks who laugh off 9/11 LIHOP/MIHOP theories as "silly tinfoil conspiracy". This is mainstream (well, Canadian mainstream) media finally connecting the BFEE/BinLaden dots like many of us have been doing here on DU (and elsewhere online) for about two years now.

17. Well that doesn't help
I have X amount of bandwidth per month. I would have to be able to calculate how much I'm using now with how much your project would use, etc. I can't have my server shut down or run up bandwidth costs that I can't afford to volunteer for your project. Just forget I said anything, been down this nowhere road too many times.

10. Watching CBC's "The National" online. Don'tcha think that they'd make...
...something with such appeal available on the net?

Try their newscast from:

http://www.cbc.ca/national/

Click on Mansbridge's right shoulder.

FYI, tonight's broadcast contains more Canadian content than seen in many a month. There still remains more meat in the international/USA minutes than in any American broadcast.

CBC News is a no bullshit operation.

Try it.

Webspace still needed.
