Just a quick thought...The new site design is nice but i really dont think you should exclude IE users. The site should preform the same for each browser. As of now over 71% of web users use IE. Granted people think FF might be better but thats no reason to make it difficult for the average web users to use the site. Just a thought atleast.

I think I might actually buy the DVD's... only because the network needs money. If I want history, I'd go next door (according to my channel lineup) to the History Channel.

err dont think your really going to help TWC. Just encourage them to do more programs like this

Which one is better to backup Martin? The original raw .avi/mpg file or the wmv files? I dont want to save both types lol because i need space to backup pics/songs/documents too.

Honestly it depends. Im a big packrat as mentioned before ( ) So I save both the split and full version of the files. I think its fun to look back on full episodes of TWC from a while ago. However if your tight for space, just keep the split/shortened files. No point in redownloading them from Youtube IMO ateast.

I haven't backed up the videos I previously uploaded to YT. I will probably backup and save my favorite clips from May, March and June. And, then save all of the rest.

Haha yea im a packrat in the physical and digital world. I have a Windows Home Server that does complete system backups of every computer each night. It holds every raw TWC I have captured (except some i lost to a corrupt drive). The server storage totals as of now 4.14 TB.

I wanted to let everyone know I am working on a new Youtube account.
I will be adding a lot of older videos that were removed from my old account since my old account went under personal review.

http://www.youtube.com/user/MartinMCTWC

Feel free to subscribe or request friend status 

Also while my raw video files (at this time) are not HD quality, they are better than the Youtube "High Quality" setting. So I will attempt to encode many of my videos to 720p so viewers can see the best quality that can.
