I don't know why for sure, but I do notice that most WOSAT uploads (of any kind)
to public streaming services seem to end up going away :(

My recollection is that Mike doesn't want WOSAT on commercial sites
(i.e. sites with advertising) such as Youtube.

If *you* bothered to read the newsgroup, you'd easily find out that
Mike doesn't allow his work on Youtube.

So, you take it upon yourself to do something that by your own actions
here clearly shows you aren't sure if Mike allows it, then expect Mike
to have to take time and effort out of his life to correct you?

Mike or the regs here would be too polite to tell you, but I'm not;
you, sir, are a flaming asshole.

His intentions were good. No reason to be insulting.

If you bothered to read the date on the post, or the followups, you'd
know you were responding to something a month old, which had been
resolved.

No, he was somebody who learned about good intentions and the road to
hell. You, on the other hand...

Maybe you see no reason, but you don't know my reasons. I happen to
be tired of insolence, obtuseness and incompetence being excused and
often rewarded, and this is a prime opportunity for me to vent at a
jackass without repercussions. It's refreshing.

The OP still has the film on Youtube. Not sure what part of his
transgression on Mike's rights and expressed preferences ar
"resolved."

Again, I'm not sure how you ascertained that he "learned" anything.
The video is still on Youtube, earning Youtube money at Mike's expense
and the dipshit OP is the only one who can take it down unless, as
stated, Mike takes time out his life to fix what this inconsiderate
jackass has done.

and the road to
> hell. You, on the other hand...


I never claimed to have good intentions. I'm a fan of Mike's work and
I am bothered when people trample on his generosity and good will.
Obviously, your milquetoast, kinder, gentler tongue caresses had no
effect on the OP as evidenced by the video staying put.

Years later I finally check back with this, but I took the video down when Mike was nice enough to email me. There was no reason to be so rude, Thin Theherd, I didn't know about the "rule" of Mike not wanting the video on places like YT, if I HAD known that I wouldn't have put it up in the first place.

Welcome back

So after 5 years away, did it feel like coming home? Or like pulling a Rip Van Winkle?

I know, right? I wasn't expecting such a backlash. But, oh well, there's always a bad apple or two I guess. Kind of funny to see how some people react though. It was kind of like the "YOU SUCK" guy in the Wedding Singer.

Sorry to see these guys gave you a hard time Kris. For what it's worth, the impression I got recently is that Mike's stance on YouTube uploads has softened quite a bit in the last few years (though please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).

I would tend to agree it may have softened, since I've seen more than one posting of the full movie on YouTube in recent times.

I would love it if someone like SHOUT factory, Kino, Arrow, or even Mill Creek could get a deal done to get WOSAT released on Blu Ray. I would be even more awesome to get some featurettes made, and record a commentary. Heck, just a barebones disc with just the movie would be amazing. Get some money rolling Mike's way.
