Stage 6 is Shutting Down!!!
I'm in shock. Disappointing....... sources inside the stage6 confirms this.
It is a bad news for many.... eeeeeeehhhh.......WTF!!......a sad day for the internet, a sad day for the pirates.....I think this the first time I've seen the internet taking a step backwards.
I was a true fan of stage6 with really some quality stuff in there. well i guess its back to bit torrent avi's so long to good streaming video, anything other than divx just really sucks.
The stage6 made the difference when it was around. Stage6 kicked ass better then anything around today when it comes to video. Every day new DivX Certified devices arrive on the market making it easy to move video beyond the PC. Products powered by DivX Connected, our new initiative that lets users stream video, photos, music and Internet services from the PC to the TV, are hitting retail outlets.
But its the good news for the google videos and veoh.
a minute silence for stage6......... R.I.P.........

PCMag Review: Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1
A little over a year after the first appearance of Vista in January 2007, Service Pack 1 (SP1) is nearly ready for download. [There have been a couple of release snafus, including the accidental release, on 2/21/08, of the 64-bit version.]. SP1 is a useful but not crucial update to the OS, and one that won't greatly affect your computing day, at least not outwardly. The bulk of the development effort has gone toward upgrading security subsystems—elements that enterprise clients find appealing but consumers and small-business users won't really notice (although they'll feel better knowing about them). The bottom line is that there's absolutely no reason not to download SP1 (which you'll receive automatically if you have AutoUpdate turned on), so it's almost a given that it will become the standard in the very near future.

Sony's Blu-Ray Wins Video Format Contest
The high definition television disk format war effectively ended this week when Toshiba announced it was pulling the plug on its HD DVD format, leaving the market to Blu-Ray, the competing format developed by Sony. The move is expected to jump-start sales of high-definition disks and players, at least until the next big thing comes along.
Format wars have been part of technological innovation at least since the 19th century, when Edison and Westinghouse battled over standards for electric power transmission.
More recently, a generation ago, Beta and VHS competed for the home video market. PC Magazine editor in chief Lance Ulanoff says there are parallels between that format war, which Sony lost, and the high definition format war, which Sony won.
ULANOFF: "It was widely accepted that Betamax was the superior format. And many people say Blu-Ray is supposedly the superior format and now it's won. I kind of disagree, in that there's very little difference between the two formats. But beyond that, the analogy is quite good. In much the same way, the industry realized that it doesn't matter which is the superior technology. What matters is, which will people buy?"
BLU-RAY PROMO: "Blu-Ray is a totally new, high-definition digital disc technology that's changing DVD the same way DVD changed VHS."
Blu-Ray has one technical advantage over HD DVD: bigger capacity. A double-layer Blu-Ray disk can hold 50 gigabytes of data, almost twice as much as an HD DVD. Longer running time helped VHS prevail in the battle of the competing videocassette formats. But Ulanoff says a bigger factor this time was the alliance that coalesced around Blu-Ray, starting with the fact that its backer, Sony, also owns a movie studio.
ULANOFF: "That was one part of it. But there was also the partnership for distribution. Things really began to fall apart for Toshiba and the HD DVD guys when Warner Bros. walked away at the beginning of January. That was followed by Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Netflix, and others walking away from the HD DVD format. So suddenly, all their major distribution partners said, nah, you know, this isn't working for us."
Ulanoff says that Sony also benefited from the fact that it included a Blu-Ray player in its popular PS3 video game console.
ULANOFF: "Sony got really beat up last year for the PS3. One, it seemed too big, it was too expensive, it wasn't selling well. And it had this Blu-Ray player in it. You know, what the heck were people going to do with that? Nobody had Blu-Ray discs. Well, now that seems like a stroke of genius because that helped seed the Blu-Ray technology into probably over a million American homes. And that may have made all the difference."
Sony won the battle of the high definition home video disc formats, but it's an open question as to how much that victory is worth. While the market for physical media containing movies and other video content is not going to disappear overnight, analysts expect that consumers will eventually get more of their entertainment delivered over the Internet.
ULANOFF: "We're again in a time of transition, because now people can download high-def[inition] movies without a player at all. Now, the quality is not as high. You also don't get all the extras. But the advent of the Internet kind of is a game changer here. So, Blu-Ray will sell. But the question is, will they sell the same kind of volume they did 10, 15 years ago, or will more people start to look at set-top boxes as the way to get high-def content to their TVs?"
And Lance Ulanoff of PC Magazine adds that, like compact discs and DVDs, a data version of Blu-Ray is likely to be a standard computer accessory in years to come, with many times the storage capacity of today's DVD.

Power of Indian IT Industries
Reflecting the outsourcing prowess of India Inc around 20 Indian companies, including the likes of Infosys, Wipro and Tata Consultancy Services, are among the best in the world. ‘The 2008 Global Outsourcing 100’ list compiled by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP) has named about 20 companies based in India. Among them are: India’s top software exporters — Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, HCL Technologies and Wipro Technologies, while Genpact, WNS and EXLService are leading BPO firms listed in the US. The others figuring in the list are MindTree Consulting, Aditya Birla Minacs, Patni, Quest, Tech Mahindra, Mastek, KPIT Cummins, Convergys, Zensar Technologies, First Source, ITC Infotech, Hexaware and 24/7 Customer. The evaluation process for compiling the list mainly takes into consideration the size and growth in revenue of the company, its employees, centres and countries served, management capabilities, competencies and customer experience. The list also features many foreign entities who have a substantial presence in India. Most of these companies are American such as Accenture, Cognizant Technologies, IBM, ADP, Xerox, CB Richard Ellis and Hewlett-Packard. According to IAOP, the list includes firms providing outsourcing services — “not just information technology and business process outsourcing, but areas such as facility services, real estate and capital asset management, manufacturing and logistics.” In a statement, CB Richard Ellis Chairman Managing Director (South Asia) Anshuman Magazine said: “It is always good to be recognised but when it is from someone like the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals, it is even more valuable. Such recognition encourages our team and inspires us to give the best in class service to our clients.”
