Yes, it seems the problem has been reso9lved. Weird. It was like a 2-3 minute glitch in the system. I'm such a damn DVD freak what can I say.

Wow, a slight overreaction, don't you think?

On a kind of related note though, the Mobius forum has been down for a day or so. Not sure what the hell is going on there.

Clarification, from yesterday:

We've got a bit of other news for you today. First of all, The Digital Bits is going to be moving to a new server. That SHOULDN'T impact you guys at all. With any luck, you won't even notice the transition. But it's going to keep us a little busy behind the scenes for the next few days, so if the posts seem a little light, you'll know why. Never a dull moment around here. Heck, you guys probably won't even notice. You'll all be to busy watching Star Wars.

It's an internet website. They go down once in awhile. It's funny how we see posts like this whenever it happens, like if DVDAF goes down for 30 minutes or whatnot

I found this disturbing...gotta have my M.

like if DVDAF goes down for 30 minutes or whatnot
more like Profiler...they always have problems. with dvdaf...it's pure shock. I mean how often have they went down in the past 2 years? once? twice? even when they did...they provided great communication so everyone knew what was going on.

What's the "Digital Bits"?

(And under my breath, sucking up to DVDTalk Administrators so that I may become a reviewer one day) "Traitor bastards."

Who cares? this is DVDTALK. This is like NBC reporting that ABC was off the air for 5 minutes the other night.

Typing in "thedigitalbits.com" doesn't seem to work. However, typing in "www.thedigitalbits.com" does seem to work.

Never mind the Digital Bits, anyone know what happened to the Mobius Home Video Forum? It's been dead for about two days.

They've posted an update since. Server headaches. Mobius was the first place I headed when the news of Russ Meyer's death was announced, and I was disappointed to see that they weren't online.

What about DVD File? They haven't reported any new disc news in over a week.
