- Judman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It went down, and now there's more bandwidth so its back up.
- kohno214, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That's it. The one-millionth Apple story on Digg.
Must...try...to...resist. Not...working. Feel...urge...to...move...to...California. Feel...urge...to...overpay...for...computer.
Help...me...please...help...me. Arrrrrgh. - darkscout, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1http://pesc.student-orgs.purdue.edu/30iPod.m4v.mp4
It's on a .edu. It's a student group I'm in. Should be good for people with out access to a torrent. - Sirocco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm sorry, but from about 1983 - 2002 Apple mostly produced *****, overpriced products. And because of that, their sales and market share dwindled. Now they have their iPod floating their sales and pushing products. It wasn't genius, it was luck. But they're back in the biz again and should enjoy it while it lasts.
- volatileacid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's working for me.
I haven't seen it before and I don't give a ***** if everyone else has!
There are too many petty minded kids on Digg, who think that an apple promo video promotes fanboy 'ism' when in fact all it is is a bitch ass video - get over it - I've got an ipod, as a network engineer use cisco products all day long, and at work I have to use Slackware (which I quite enjoy now) - and even after all that, I still rate Microsoft and how far they've come with Windows...
it's all bloody horses for courses... if a product fulfills a requirement, then utilise it - i'm not going to stay away from a particular company because I have a personal vendetta against them.
And really, that's how the market in general works - Look at Sega - if customer bases were really that loyal, they would have stuck with the Dreamcast, and Sega would still be in the console market today. - BiggPa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1nm, i didnt know the commercial was redone with the ipod
- kimchiboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My 2 cents for this movie I appreciate. I've uploaded (I can delete it if the owner wishes so) the movie on YouTube so that anyone can watch it on streaming (the link here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pL4KOkUCrmI) and to spread it copy paste the following code :
Enjoy - Thx for the movie guy - leftfoot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Doesn't work anymore.
- dabears, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0haha i liked the ipod added onto hammergirl's waste for the mac superbowl add.
- mkjones, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yeh chill out, let the fanboy have his day.
- SATURN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i think i saw this on the front page already
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0[Sorry, but 2 days and 600 GB later, I'm not paying for you to host this anymore. Aaron, you can consider putting up a torrent or finding some mirrors, but next time, you should consider asking me in advance, not digging your own blog, and responding to my messages. -C]
- volatileacid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0and the music player stanglehold will give them the funds to improve the Mac. THINK about the latest transition from 68000 to Intel.
- ThomasNewman1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Is anyone else not able to dig anything, I all of a sudden keep getting an error message when I try.
Cool video, I really liked the "Switch" ad about the chick whose paper got totaled. "It was like.....all gone, so I had to hurry another one and it wasn't as good." - SATURN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0nevermind... i didn't read your whole post before i submitted that... my bad.
- halophoenix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow...this video is awesome. :)
- spankaccount, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's down.
- aarplane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It went offline after being on the frontpage for a couple minutes. It turns out it wasn't bandwidth after all, but a simple error in Apache. Everything is and will be in working order now.
- aliekens, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks for bringing the link back up, I was looking forward to seeing the movie. Having a torrent of the movie would've been nice too ... And people who are complaining about the dupe-ness of this article, read the description first!
- WebCester, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0NM; found it. It's Benny Goodman with Sing, Sing, Sing.
- WebCester, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Does anybody know the name of the song that plays at the start and during the Costner commercial?
- norbiu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0digg effect strikes again
- linus7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Database unavailable.
Database unavailable.
Database unavailable. - FZero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The soundtrack for the last ad is wrong. It should be "Such Great Heights" from The Postal Service.
- spacebar14, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ok, why the hell would you link directly to a thumbnail version of an *embedded* 80MB movie?
God.. - dgcrazykid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0digg effect...dang
- aarplane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey, it's me again. My website may be down, but the video is now much more circulated over the internet:

Thanks to all who helped distribute it. - kimchiboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Edit from the last comment : to get the code see the linked page ;)
- diggdeeznutz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+030 years, 40 years, who fippin cares....and I own one. No Digg!
- Volt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Very cool. Digg because it's Apple. :P
- spiderland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Please don't resubmit this again.
- elev8, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0get a room.
- Greenline, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0nice
- DrJuice, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Irony: a video celebrating Apple Computer that doesn't play in Quicktime.
- Heilemann, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I downloaded the mov from archive.org on two different networks, two different machines. It was broken on both.
- jla1987, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0digg effect strikes again
Indeed - fordhamwt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0That tears it. I'm finally gettin an Apple.
- yvovandoorn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Looks like your "increased bandwidth" isn't really increased. Your hosting company sucks, that is for sure. What are you going to relist AGAIN after you get more "bandwidth"
pffffft - BiggPa, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0in the "1984" commercial, did anyone else notice that the girl has an ipod?
http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=1/3004522028.jpg&s=x2 - das7282, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2"Apple computer making insanely great products."
Apple fanboy?? Well he forgot to mention "insanely expensive" too. - AttroPheed, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Here's a summary for those that can't download it:
30 years ago apple had *cough* a healthy percentage of the computer market.
30 years later they have 2% of the market and a wildly successful portable music player.
Roll credits. - inkswamp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1> jkfan87, chill. It is enough to report the link. There

I love when I see evidence that blocking Mac-bashers is working. Didn't even see the post you're responding to. :^)
I started blocking Mac bashing morons about a week ago and strangely, Digg's discussions seem a lot more civil and interesting now. Mac-related topics are just another opportunity to hone my block list. I encourage all of you who get tired of Mac bashing here on Digg to do the same. It's great. - BaldMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0jkfan87, chill. It is enough to report the link. There is no reason to write a hostile comment.
This is Digg.com not NoDiggYouPatheticIdiot.com. - Trjn, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1@inkswamp, don't forget the Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft console based threads.
- inkswamp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0> don't forget the Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft console based threads.
I wish I could. ;^) - harshbarj, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1more apple fanboy stuff. -digg.
- das7282, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0"I encourage all of you who get tired of Mac bashing here on Digg to do the same. It's great."
You've been blocked. :) - Dupenazi, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Use the search, it is there for a reason.
