Donor Movie Download Service

[Ciderhelm]

Want to download movies from the TankSpot collection? You may be interested in our new movie download service now available to Donors!


Don't you provide these movies for free?
Yep. Every last one of them can be found on the net, either through YouTube, Filefront, or WCM. Movies I make will continue to be made completely free and, when possible, available in high defintion.

In other words, you're paying for something we provide for free. I'm fine with that. This service is different because it runs on our bandwidth and gives easy, centralized access to the whole collection in a safe way. It also helps our site.


Just what movies are we talking about?
All of my Project Marmot videos are here, and future Marmot videos (Ulduar, etc.) will also be hosted here, bandwidth permitting. You will also find a variety of other movies that may not be directly related to raiding.

What file format are these in?
All movies are in Windows Media Video (WMV) format.


Are there limitations?
Downloads may be slowed or temporarily shut down during peak hours, and in the event of a server-oriented emergency, they may be shut down for a longer duration. Also, in the event that some of this needs to be cut back for our server, I will make every effort to keep current and future Project Marmot movies downloadable, but may remove access to non-raid movies.


How do I become a donor?

it's a small rodent.

awesome news on the movies Cider, yet another reason to donate to the site.

[Ewanar]

That really sealed the deal for me!

[Naggzu]

I dont know if it is any help, but why not make the movies as torrents, then its the users themself there is sharring em with one and another. the more pl who have em, the faster it will go with the downloadning.

This might not be a bad alternative in case bandwidth becomes an issue. I'd certainly seed a bunch of the movie torrents.

[Snugglasaur]

as soon as you turn something into a torrent it becomes too widely available with password included wherever it is posted, as it is meant to be a very specific privledge torrents wouldn't be a good idea

[Balthusdire]

Question, are the videos HD like the youtube ones?

[Ciderhelm]

Yep. The movies are all at original resolution as they're the original files. Some of the older ones aren't as high quality by virtue of when they were made.

[Pathology]

So maybe I'm an idiot... I donated, now i'm wondering where the download page is? I don't see the option in the guide threads, and I haven't seen a "download here!" link anywhere?

Help? =)

I am intrested in downloading the TankSpot movies, but i have a few questions.

1. How much must i donate in order to be allowed to download movies?
2. In what format can I download the movies in? (DivX, .mov, .iphone)

[Ciderhelm]

I have updated our movie lists with all current movies (i.e. the 2009 movies were added).

1. $20 is the subscription system we have set. You can choose to donate more, but $20 gives access to all movies we have hosted at any given time.

2. I encode to WMV only. I may expand this in the future.

Decided to give you $20 for all the help you've given our guild. I'd love to watch some of the movies in Hi-Res but cannot figure out how to download them?

Quick note: This was resolved via the donor forums a couple days ago. The "Donate" link is replaced with "Downloads." Just posting here so it doesn't look like we didn't respond.

Hey Cider,

I donated 50 bones to support your wonderful site, now where is the access to the downloads.

Should be visible on the link bar up top where the old "Donate" button was or via the sticky in the Donor forums. Enjoy!

There's an orange button on the top navigation of the site that says Download.
