Warning! Turn your speakers down before entering the above site!
Beep Bee Bee Beep!!

There's still Veoh but it too encodes to crap FLV.

A sad day - I was using it to watch Stargate Atlantis while away at school (as well as Torchwood and other random TV shows). I guess I'll have to find something else to waste my time or just start doing my work more.

How can they take the site down for maintenance when theres downloading needing to be done.

 

[nova2]

The downloads are working. I just only got 21 out of 29 downloads.

 

[nova2]

actually, you can probably get what you want if you search the site using google and use google cache so you can get the video ID
afterall thats all you really need to start the download

for example
http://www.google.com/search?h...kern+piano&btnG=Search
then
wget http://video.stage6.com/1366290/.divx -O "Olga-Kern---Rachmaninov-Piano-Concerto-No--3.avi"

or whatever you prefer

 

[SZLiao214]

IF you guys are interested in some other video links, i found this on wiki.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C...ison_of_video_services

It has a chart with a bunch of the video sites as well as some info on each one.

 

[uhohs]

files getting quickly removed.
farewell stage6.

/cry

Man I just surfed over there not realizing that it went down. Sad day for high quality video on demand. I used to get all sorts of fixes on that site. Hopefully something will come back as amazing as Stage6.com was.
