This is wear I downloaded all of the Tsunami videos from and if you haven't seen them (and if you have been watching MSM you haven't) you should. Nothing will give you a better idea of the magnitude of what has taken place and how we are all going to have to pitch in on the relief efforts.

Jeers, to Apple for shutting down the video streams on the guys home page. It is their perrogative, but it seems like a paticularly bad PR move. Especially at a Time when the blog is raising in stature...

For the record I have six videos so far. There is another one that I have only seen in streaming format.

big_wave.wmv patong-beach.wmv penang.wmv sri-lanka-tsunami.wmv thai.wmv tsunamiphuket.wmv

I will try to find some place to host them.

Smogger,

Sorry to hear Apple removed the files. I suspect that 400,000 hits may have strained your .Mac user agreement a tad. Somewhere in the fine print is a limitation on bandwidth.

You have a personal account but were using a business level bandwidth for a while there... Someone has to pay for that usage. I suspect the level of usage had risen to the level where it was adversely impacting other user's ability to access .Mac.

The best way to get these is by BitTorrent, that way no one person is getting his bandwidth hammered.

Download a BitTorrent client like Azureus. There's no spyware in it. Or search around for another client. Azureus needs Java to run (get it if you don't have it).

Google "tsunami video bittorrent" or just go to Torrent Reactor. Click to download where you see a link. It'll launch Azureus and download the video.

You're generally okay downloading video files, but I'd suggest having a virus scanner on your machine.
