Legal Video Comps

djtripp 7:07 PM - 16 April, 2009
Maybe we should start posting what random video comps we've found legally, like from Amazon etc, where you can find those hard to find vids. Maybe anything that doesn't have a chyron or watermark.

Example:

Ice Cube "You Can Do It" - Next Friday Movie DVD Quality: Audio 7 (clean) Video 8
Franz Ferdinand "Take Me Out" Now Thats What I Call Music 2 DVD A7 (clean) V9

Seems more useful and LEGAL!

+1 for this thread. This will be a great resource. Just hope it doesn’t get locked by some newbie posting up illegal sh!t.

This is a no brainer. When I first started video Djing, I just went to amazon.com and purchased every music video DVD they had (any danceable artists at least). Then I went to best buy and did the same. All these videos are tagless.

I thought anyone doing videos professionally would have already done this.
djtripp 11:30 PM - 16 April, 2009
We have, but maybe it would be a nice forum list for people just starting or can't find a specific track.

I know I would love to know where to buy a copy of "Family Affair" by Mary J Blige, just haven't found it.

Well, I think you're missing the point. I'm not looking for Promo Only or the like on this thread. I'm looking for the straight video, no chyrons, no subscription, etc.

Thanks though, I know it's there, I just can't bring myself to promote that company.

sorry, i didn't mean to double post but the video is not hard to find. you can always do what those illegal sites do and get the promo only dvd and edit out the promo only logos. i wouldn't recommend doing that though. it always seemed way shady to me.

i just checked my version of the video and it is a promo only version so i can't help ya with a recommendation.
a-swift 1:08 AM - 17 April, 2009
i'll take it a step further. i'll say that if you are serious about video djing that it's impossible to do without promo only videos, so i'm not sure if your hatred for them is going to work out for you in the long run.

i mean, you might be able to get by for a while, there's a few decent services out there but seriously, you can't really be a video dj without promo only unless your music selection is highly specialized and not mainstream.

i know there are a lot of people who will disagree but i'm standing by this.
djtripp 1:25 AM - 17 April, 2009
k, thanks. no hijack, back to real thread content.
lvmez 1:30 AM - 17 April, 2009

I agree 100% with this, as well as smashvidz. Chyrons or not il still play the vidz that are hot.
djtripp 5:43 PM - 17 April, 2009
I'm not saying i won't use vids with chyrons, i just preffer not to. And after some of the shenanigans with P.O. I really don't feel like paying more for their advertisements. That's just me.

Just to be clear. I am NOT asking to trade, buy videos from individuals! I am trying to come up with a comprehensive list of videos and collections where you can get chyron free videos. Please don't post asking to trade or send videos to people. You'll just get the thread closed and youself banned.
djpuma_gemini 3:47 PM - 20 April, 2009
Best bet is like others posted. Amazon.com for videography's of artists. Maybe they have a now that's what I call music DVD

are promoting renting videos copying/ripping them?

wouldn't that go into the realm of illegal?
Rebelguy 1:08 AM - 28 April, 2009
Maybe he rented them to see if they were worth buying. ;)

Damn, I just peeped the Regulator video. It's rediculously edited. They made it super clean by dropping all vocal parts referencing "Gats Exploding" and stuff. I normally like clean edits, but this one is overdone.
