All give and no take, that’s the way it seems to be these days. Roxbytes wouldn’t be what it is today if it wouldn’t be for people sharing. If you don’t want to share something, that’s fine. At the same time though one must ask how much are they downloading that other people poured endless time and effort into putting online. Just thinking, that’s all.
*I spelled three words wrong during this post, but I went back and actually proof read what I wrote... wow... no mistakes.

Well, it WAS captured from the webcast. So there’s no better version :-/

And the file for the so called “high quality” that you can download right now has got errors, at least I get it when I trie to use it.
pietROxette said on April 4, 2004 16:58:
It doesn’t have any erros, you just can’t seek it, because although you are playing it from your computer, it’s still behaves as a webcast, it’s only that your computer functions as a server. But you can use this little proggy to make it seekable: http://roxette.cs.caltech.edu/worldwide/misc/software/asmtrial12.exe
@coyboy: who the f*** would sue you??? But go on, keep it for yourself, but say it loud you have it... if it exists at all. (Like the materials you said you’d upload first to RoxBytes then to your ’under construction’ site.) Oh... forget it...

Great comment, Pietro!
Alex must have gotten a video I made for you. So upload. No excuse because of the size will be accepted. You see people here do not ask for shit

let’s try to keep the peace, people. ;)
But if he really got some tape with it....where did it came from? I mean, it wasn’t broadcasted, right?? it was an internet-only event! how would that be possible? (maybe somebody recorded from the computer file to vhs) :p
anyway, it’s a shame we won’t ever get a nice room service concert to watch. Releasing a live-DVD would be the BEST step for Roxette. but it wont happen!
who needs the FUZZY-DAMN new dvd, with all its errors and problems??
oh gosh... :(

How about Roxette release.... a DVD boxset.. with a concert from each tour on DVD.... Look Sharp, Joyride, Crash and Room Service... now who would buy that!
ME!!
Roxbang2003 said on April 4, 2004 18:01:
Uhhh....ally, now THAT would be the greatest step. But forget it... we won’t ever see the greenlight for something like this...
Shame to see other bands with suberb DVDs
(some examples: pet shop boys with all the videos with an audio track for COMMENTARIES from the guys, or Shania Twain, with a DV concert...one of the greatest picture quality I’ve ever seen on DVD...)
Thats why I’ve asked for some high-quality room service file... we’ll never have a Roxette live DVD. And that’s such a pity, cause a lot of people missed the tour (like me, I live in Brazil)...

A live DVD boxset. I think every Rox fan would like to see that!
Hopefully one day.

roxlad said on April 5, 2004 18:14:
well ’cos I guess you have downloaded at least a few things from Roxbytes like we all do....
Now come on, tell the truth!!! :-))))
pietROxette said on April 7, 2004 08:07:
They only asked me to remove it until the site that webcast the concert repeated it.
Come on, don’t be ridiculous...

It’s strange that there are no roxfans with any pull on television, at least we don’t hear about them. Cuz all the concerts and clips we would dream about are safely archived in TV-prebroadcast quality (which is generally better than DVD). IS THERE NOBODY ABLE TO GET THEM??? COME ON, SHARE!!!
Roxbang2003 said on April 4, 2004 00:42:
hi everyone!!
the reason of this post is to ask -or BEG- for someone at Roxbytes to release a high quality
(svcd / vcd) file of the stockholm Room Service concert.
I mean, someone probably still got the source (tape?? please PLEASE don’t tell me it was captured from the internet...I would cry hehe)
The format that is there (DSL?) is SO poor in quality...too limited for a nice svcd.
this is probably the one and only nice-quality concert video we will ever see of the room service tour.
It would be so nice to watch it on my standalone DVD....
please tell me there’s a way hehe!!
best wishes!
