Just a thought.

Post by thedisavowed »

Ok, here's a thought:

I don't know what the legalities involved are in something like this, but we keep getting flooded with requests for different (never released) BOC material as well as mashups and covers and things like that.

So...

It just seems it would be cool if there was some central storage space we could all load our files into... and when people become seasoned members or whatever they could go there and get them. That way we could put all these videos and stuff into a sort of collective collection.

I guess it's just an issue of the cost of the space.

What do ya'll know/think about this?

You mean something like a good old-fashioned FTP archive?

Sounds like a very important "thought"

maybe this should be stickied if enough people get involved, you can count me in!

All there needs to be is a good server...

do the rapidshare kind of sites allow the file to be up all the time ?

That's a great one Cupz!, but change the Username and Password in a couple of hours, send everyone who is interested in this a personal message with the new username and pass or else the place will be flooded with stuff that doesn't belong there.

For how long will this free ftp space be up?
It only worked in IE for me with this address: ftp://ftp.classic-gaming.net/

I uploaded some remixes and mash-ups, not that rare.. but I guess some of you haven't heard some of them yet.

I really wonder for how long this will be up...
