When I first started programing I thought “URL” stood for “Universal Resource Locater”… And that anything on the web was fair game to sample, composite, extract from…

A few DMCA’s later I learned my lesson and now tow the line very well… But I must say, those years of full fledged relentless sharing allowed me to grow so fast and learn so much…

The web is such a special thing, and it was even specialer when I thought everyone was sharing so freely… Open Video only helps us all!

Thank you all for this great important work, 2 or 3 generations down the road they will enjoy video and audio open-source applications on the net , let’s hope they can read that it was because in the old 2009-2010′s , some people made the extra effort, the real push….Thanks.

About Net Neutrality, and with the actual FCC and Congress , i just don’t see it, i see only a few big Monopolies controlling everything and D.C. looking lost in the Campaign Money Trail….what a criminal shame !

Again thanks because your work keeps choices alive and well, options like 3D and holograms still have a chance to grow for all……to lift everybody, what a concept !
