check the last dev post imo yeah they deserve to get paid i mean they've done even more than they said they would, they're working on the new ui which im really looking forward to seeing because i think thats the big push needed and since they added support for ipfs i've been using the site with pretty much no complaints other then the visuals

I dont see subscriptions, or playlist management. But then again everything does work much smoother. I'll go with what everyone decides I just figured those would come when the new ui came.

I say we wait for those 4 tasks to be completed.

I'll try to address this clearly for people for those asking, the meta data and tagging has been done for some time now and will be improved. This is essentially the feature when you search the movie/TV title and it fills in all that information for you (Synopsis, Genres, etc). There are some current limitations with this like I previously mentioned. An example of this is current the auto populate doesn't work well for great for currently airing anime which is a big form of media, but does work well for main stream/English TV and movies. Better support for this can be added in the future, but for the time being it does it's job fairly well. Video suggestions by similar tags is a system that's long been implemented as well, it's clear to see it's working as there are some recommended movies at the bottom of viewing one. Playlist management is done, but isn't entirely visible in the current UI since we've temporarily disabled TV while we add support for TV through IPFS. There are two examples of this which is a playlist could be derived from a users liked content (new) but more important playlists were auto-assembled when a user uploaded a season. A season was essentially a playlist which was a collection of several entries. Rather then spending development time making pages for and writing the front end integration for certain features on the current UI which can be a lengthy process, we've chose to focus on other important matters because we're going to be switching to the front end Dynamic Index developed. Lastly, subscriptions, again this is done but there's some issues with this in the current UI. For example, suppose you like someones content very similar to how when you're on said content it has recommendations you can perform an analysis on content they've liked and suggest other content from that user which is a good starting point. On Youtube you see this feature as "You might also like from this User..." which just limits the related algorithm to content from that user then content entirely on the index. The other issue with subscriptions is that currently all views are uploaded anonymous. We planned on addressing this again in the new UI where a user chooses certain permissions when uploading a video. It's currently not like Youtube in the sense that you see who uploaded it and they have a channel and you can see their other uploads etc the reason being it requires UI for the user profile.

There seems to be a disjoint in thinking between practically and what's best for PureVIdz versus what gets us paid. Hypothetically speaking, we had never mentioned IPFS or a new UI before on the roadmap so should we just scrap those and prioritize what gets us paid because those are our tangible incentives? The obvious answer is no. Here's another hypothetical, during the crowdfunding process should we have made promises for things that would take years to develop but still collect our crowdfunding money upfront after the token/coin launches like every other crowdfund does? The obvious answer is no, because anyone doing this makes the whole point of escrows pointless and if that was their intentions from the start there was no reason to use an escrow other than for show purposes. We should be prioritizing development in a way that lets us grow and expand the platform in the fastest way possible and lets people feel an immediate product that still works quite well even if it's not to the point we intend to eventually get it to. Our incentive to get PureVidz to that point is that the faster we're at the point where we can approach main stream users and grow our reach the faster we all benefit.

Thanks.

It's PoS.

Pos

We can disagree, but "feature creep" will just slow you down...
Your priority should be to stand up a basic, solid site... then focus on PR to drive up user/view numbers...
The coin pimps on Twitter are just discovering VIDZ and they matter 

Everyone here will get paid if you can scale to 1000s of users... NOT based on dozens of esoteric features 

this is dope, nice update, good intentions all over here.

Note: Since the site is still in beta some content or features may not function as intended.

LoL.


But looks like the three I just clicked on to test are working fine.

So again just to make sure, can they shutdown purevidz site, like they did with other torrents sites, or the fact it is decentralised means they cannot ever touch it.
Some one please elaborate ?

The GUI wallet is pretty poor any plans to update it?
