I’m Tom (aka Spinner), a Stage6 user and an employee of DivX, Inc., the company behind the service. I’m writing this message today to inform you that we plan to shut down Stage6 on February 28, 2008. Upload functionality has already been turned off, and you’ll be able to view and download videos until Thursday.

Surely all of you have heard of both Stage6 and Youtube. Both of the sites are online video hosting and sharings sites. Both do have their strengths and weaknesses though.
Stage6
Stage6 is the newer of the two contenders having been launched in 2006. They accept a wide variety of content from tv shows and music videos to movies. Where stage6 really excels though is its ability to host video up to 1080p, something youtube lacks. Stage6 does come with a few down sides though. The search function is somewhat useless, most of the time giving videos irrelevant to your actual search. The site also has far, far fewer visitors.
Youtube
Youtube is probably the poster child of online video hosting and sharing. Launched in 2005, it has become the benchmark. They accept a wide variety of video formats due to encoding server side. Where stage6 is strong is user base, with millions of people using youtube daily, you are bound the get some views on your video. The downsides of youtube are lack of HD video and the large percentage of jun videos currently on youtube.
Perhaps sometime in the future, a youtube/stage6 hybrid can be made, combining the users of youtube with the HD capabilities of stage6. If only this was a utopia.
A few weeks ago, Snoken released their latest installment of the popular Frost series. Based on the BF2142 game engine, this sure is a damn good piece of work. Be sure to watch the whole thing.
It’s been a long time since the last episode of Frost was released, though it feels like only yesterday. The past 6 months have been very hectic; we’ve had a lot of work to do on very tight schedules with school and work.
I hope that you are all still eager to see if Steve and Mike will make it back to their time. The third episode of Frost has a lot more content than the previous episodes. It’s more than half an hour long with five new voice actors, one of them being Gordon Van Dyke, the Associate Producer on Battlefield: Bad Company.
I want to thank all of those who’ve been supportive and shown interest in our work despite the long wait. I also want to thank Walmart Security for providing us with server power to host our movies on Snoken.net, both via Download and a High-Res Divx Stream. Most of all I’d like to thank Fnotte for making this episode possible, he’s spent many hours of hard work on this episode doing voice acting, music, an amazing intro, and much more.
I hope you all enjoy Frost 3. Feel free to give us feedback, both positive and negative, and please be constructive as we only want to improve and give you guys the best show possible.
