nsane.forums Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 More than two years have passed since The Pirate Bay team first announced that they were working on a video streaming site. However, as with most of their projects it can take a while before the public can catch a glimpse of what they are working on.The Video Bay - as the project is named - opened up to the public with a very early test version a few weeks ago. Initially, users were able to browse though the videos but this has been disabled now. What is left is an announcement that the site will be launched somewhere in the future.“This site will be an experimental playground and as such subjected to both live and drunk (en)coding, so please don’t bug us too much if the site ain’t working properly,” it currently reads on the site’s main page.The Video Bay Launches in Test ModeHow long it will take before the site will be opened up to the public is unknown. Pirate Bay's TiAMO told TorrentFreak that there is still a lot of work to do behind the scenes. The encoder is not finished yet and the design is also a work in progress. Pirate Bay Spokesman Peter Sunde agreed that it might take a while before the site goes live and told us that “it will be done when it’s done, in the future, in like a year or five.”The Video Bay aims to implement some of the latest technologies including HTML 5 features such as the video and audio tags as well as the embedding of ogg/theora video and audio formats. However, it will not use p2p technology to stream the videos.In time the site has the potential to become a major player in the video streaming area, similar to what BayIMG is for image hosting. A no-nonsense video sharing site where users can share whatever they want - uncensored.Hollywood will be delighted. View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Lee Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 With the big guys heading to jail... how are they doing this?They have branches, you can take one out but the tree still wont fall :wub: ; Peter said it would take "in like a year or five". I expect the latter of the two to be the time when this launches.--There's already a site like this. thatvideosite does what they're trying to do already. It's not very organized, the theme could use a face lift but there are no limitations. For the "adult" stuff they have an 18+ section too. Not too bad by the way :ph34r: ; I'm not sure what its worth, but its pretty decent. ; Site looks down now :D BayImg is that great either. The only people who use it are the TPB'ers who post images with the torrent. I dont hear of people referring image host scouts over to BayImg. I could be wrong about this tho...
