THE WEBZINE 2000 VIDEO ARCHIVE
Below you will find the complete edited Webzine 2000 video archived in Real format. You will need to go here first to get Real Player if you don't already have it (follow the link and look for "RealPlayer 8 Basic - is our free player" in the lower left section of the page).
The first link is the complete video as one continuous stream. All other links listed here are individual panels and speakers broken up into their own files.
Unfortunately, the first three panels of the event didn't make the cut due to the sound quality being horrendous. There is just no way you can make out the audio, so we had to skip them. We apologize that sound was so sucky, we had no idea until well into the event. There is a very slim possibility that the sound can be sweetened to the point of listenability. If there's an audio engineer out there that wants to take the initiative, we have the raw masters.
Enjoy, and see below about aquiring your own VHS copy of the video.
