Canada Vignettes: Log Driver's Waltz

  “Thanks for the tip Matrix I was thinking something might be possible, time to open Opera. I still hope they add download links though to make it easier for everyone.”

  “lesty: All video are technically "downloaded" onto your computer before you can view them. You can save any video you view by going through your browser's cache and finding the corresponding file (method for doing so will differ from browser to browser--I personally use Opera and there's a "cache" folder inside the application profile folder).”

  “Is there going to be a direct download of this? I'd take it in the FLV format its already in or more preferably a XviD AVI file. You could use bittorrent to keep bandwidth costs down. I understand that you need to generate revenue but since this is only 3 minutes long is there a possibility of a download?”

  “Thank You Kate, The lads on the river.”

  “Rest in peace Kate McGarrigle. You may be gone but never forgotten.”

  “@canDarian: I'm not sure why you think people have to pay for this, but you're mistaken. Also, are you really sure your grandfather wouldn't be proud to say that he's part of a NFB film/song that has literally been burned into the cultural fabric of this country, money or not?”

  “Rest in peace Log Driver's Waltzer Kate McGarrigle. You will be missed.”

  “@canDarian - We're sorry if this film upsets you in some way, but please note that we are not charging any fees for viewing this film online.

  “My grandfather is in that reel and you besmirch his memory, by charging a fee,disgusting.”

  “This goes against everything that is Canadian and everything that I was brought up on,I know you hsve a right to make money off of the video but it doesn't make it right,and we all know it. This video isn't yours it's Canada's and every person that loves Canada.”
