New Features
YouTubeKeep.com has just added two new formats – High-Quality FLV and Full-HD 1080p support. Currently, there are not that many Full-HD videos available and the performance of play back is not great on most computers. But, if you download the video and play in VLC, you are likely to have much smoother playback.
If you want to try it out, try this Full-HD video:

As a note, the old high-quality (iPod compatible) is now Medium Quality and the old HD is HD 720p, just in case you were confused…
We have many exciting features in testing, so keep an eye on the blog and newsletter.

We had several people requesting support for the URL’s below, so we just added it.

Just a quick post to let you know I am still alive. I know, I’ve been making some excuses for being lazy about updating my websites and writing articles.
I’ve just been a little busy recently. I travelled interstate last weekend for a car event and since then I’ve been working and organising things back at home.
But fear not, I’ll be writing some more awesome articles soon!

News, Personal
A few days ago, I read a news article, talking about YouTube’s latest idea to boost revenue. Their idea is to allow YouTube partners to offer their video for download, for free or for a fee (choice of the partner). They are currently testing the plan with selected partners. I think it is a step in the right direction. More information at: The Washington Post
Decrease piracy?
With the success of iTunes Store, I think YouTube’s plan has the potential for get users what they want cheaper, quicker and LEGALLY. If the big TV networks and movies producers are willing to jump on board, it could seriously help to decrease piracy.
I have no problem paying for a video (if the price is reasonable). At the moment, when you buy a DVD, most of the money you’re paying, goes to the retailer and to the distributor. So I’m all for cutting out the middle-men! I’m not saying I pirate TV episodes or movies at the moment, but I do have a friend who does.
The bad news for me
Because YouTube wants people to PAY for downloads of certain videos, they seem to be cracking down on websites allowing users to download YouTube videos.
Unfortunately, YouTubeKeep falls into this category.
Well it was nice knowing you!
