IPod Video: I'm doing a 180

Dravyk · 10-24-2005

Eh, I still don't get it, but ...

I notice the IPod video format is 320x240 (QuickTime 7.x only) http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutor...tingvideo.html

Now while I, personally, have always thought even on the web this size is just too damned small -- and forunately on the computer I can usually right click and have it go to full screen size -- something that can't obviously can't be done on the IPod.

Well, just because I don't like the size and I don't get it ... It's also obvious that there are plugins feeds and paysite areas even in this "age of broadband" that still use the 320x240 format a whole lot -- and quite successfully.

So, I've done a total 180. I take it all back. This thing is obviously going to fly.

My point is, as a business person I do not have to get it. I only have to get that the consumers get it.

I can see this being big, both porn and non-porn video.

And, although the IPod format/audience is fueling this, I can see it getting really big when other formats and non-IPod specific hardware and feeds come out and give it a run for the money. That should start soon and happen by Spring. Meanwhile, IPod is going to rule Christmas.

Yup, who gives a shit if it's something you yourself would use as long as you understand that other people will and you can profit off it nicely!! :>))

Well what I really like is the proper use of italics.

Dravyk is a master in the use of italics. If it weren't for him, I might be bolding everything where italics would have been the proper thing to use.

There is nothing worse than some idiot mis-using italics.

Thank you Dravyk, for making me read the way you would be speaking.

You can get some great movie clips into 320x240, i've just signed up at a sponsor who's offering 160x120 video banners and i must admit it looks quite good:

Imagine that double the size.

A java bot with a small php frontend, still needs some optimalisations but i'm a happy guy as long as it runs.

As a business person you're also a consumer. In fact as a business person you should be a better consumer and question things. It's not wrong to question that tiny screen. It's impossibly small and not where I'm interested in watching much of anything.

Personally it's a waste, viable for certain purposes but worthless for others.

its not about the size of the video on the Ipod
its how it will look on your tv when you plug it in

I went to the Mac store last weekend and used one. The resolution is outstanding.

I watched a little portion of Lost and was entranced. It is better than you think.
