Frig you Dmitry Shapiro!

That's the message I got when I tried to access Veoh today to catch up with some series that I subscribed. Just when I thought being dumped by a girlfriend via MSN (WLM now) was bad, this is worse. Prolly the rudest awakening ever.
If you don't know what is Veoh yet, to put it simply, Veoh is just like Youtube. If you dunno even what is Youtube, you've prolly been hiding underground too long. Check out the entry in Wikipedia for more info.
Reason behind the ban? (source)

#1: “Unfortunately Veoh has ended service in your country due to a low concentration of users. Veoh is maintaining service in countries when we have the highest concentration of viewers.”

#2: “Veoh is maintaining markets when we have the highest concentration of viewers.”

According to Wikipedia, this outrage started last month on June without warning. (Shit, I should've finished my downloads before then). As of now, a total of 169 (and growing) countries are in the blacklist.

"Veoh has betrayed 85% of its community without notice nor apology, yet still retains the uploaded data so that the privileged few can still watch and download what is now classified as stolen property."

fcuk, there goes the videos I was going to download... I've even started halfway. Back to slow BT. Sheesh.

EDIT 1: It seems there may be little hope without paying for a VPN. I'm gonna try it. If it works, I'll mark it here. Peace.
