Loved the SATC review. Chester has turned into one of my favorite internet characters in just 3 weeks! smilies/cheesy.gif

My girlfriend went to see the movie and laughed and cried and talked. Thank God I was out of town. smilies/tongue.gif

Wait a minute, I thought the whole point of having your own website was to have a safe place to put all of your videos, so why are you relying on a different site?

Rather, why put the bum reviews there first before putting it here?

I'll save my SATC comments for when the review comes here.

I thought Chester was very funny here. It was fun to see him try and read, though without your glasses, I'm sure that really would have been difficult.

But you know what would really have been funny? If the titles at the end read "CHANGE?! YOU GOT CHANGE?!" The video really needed that.

So I'm guessing that it's some sort of sponsorship thing or something. I can't think of any other reason to use Xomba instead of your own site which was set up specifically to show your videos.

Not that I have a problem with it, bills need to be paid. Just as long as you provide a link to the latest video every week. Deal?

What the hell is Xomba? Seriously how many streaming video for profit sites are there out there?

Funny review and all, but what's the point of having a website if other sites get your content first?

I understand the need to make money, especially given how ungodly the bandwidth cost must be,it just doesn't make much sense to send your traffic off site though.

smilies/angry.gif I agree with the other users out here. Why have your own site if you're not going to release your own great material here first. smilies/grin.gif

Right now, the xomba.com thing is in a trial phase for us. It's more about gaining new users rather than making money. If we they get more users from us, and we get less from them.. well then we will stop. Nothing else is going to change though. Only the Bum Reviews will be trying this. New Nostalgia Critics/5 Second Movies/Other new shows will be here, and won't be going anywhere. Please just bear with us and give it a shot. Thanks

I think I'll just wait for the Bum Reviews to come here, personally. The movie playback isn't as smooth there (looks like half of the framerate) and it's an extra step.

I'd strongly suggest, at the very least, putting some sort of redirection page on this site, pointing to the pages hosted on Xomba.com. That would allow us RSS feedsters to stay caught up and not have to bookmark additional sites (and it'll save us from having to wait for the reviews to pop up on this site, for that matter).

I hope you guys consider doing something like that. smilies/smiley.gif

The bum reviews will appear on this site 5 days after they appear on xomba. So on this Saturday, we will have the Sex and the City review here.

I will add the bum review links to the RSS feed.
Also, like I said before this whole xomba thing is a trial. If we end up getting back less traffic than what we are giving them; we will pull the plug.

That is a fine idea for advertising, but why not post videos at the same time?

Why post one video there and then post it here a week later? If you are going to archive it anyway, might as well post it here for the viewers you already have.

It makes no REAL difference, but your logic makes very little sense to me. I understand gaining viewers, but not posting it here the same time you post it there does nothing but make your current viewers wait.

...And, by God, are we impatient.

My opinion anyway.

But why does it make current viewers wait? They know exactly where they have to go if they want to see them.

Wouldn't it make more sense to post your newest videos here and I mean ALL of your newest videos here first?

This way you can post the videos on Xomba later and when people enjoy watching the videos they would want to try and see the videos as soon as they release.
