I tried with a couple of European proxy servers and got the same message, so I bet it is blocked everywhere and not just "in your country".

Anyways, FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS! That is a very nice birthday present!

Post by: lincolnrick on May 08, 2012, 08:45:39 AM: Flavio thanks for the free music link. I've been looking for a reference like that for some time so thanks.

Post by: ta0 on May 08, 2012, 10:12:26 AM: Good run there with that 5-incher! That top has the classical Watts (Schreiber) colors (my two Watts don't).

It is interesting that the video worked from Norway. I guess I'll look for a proxy server based in Norway next time.
Thank for the link to Freeplay Music Flavio. By the way, youtube provides music that you can swap for the audio track of your video, but that leaves you with no capability of editing it.

Post by: Larry D. on May 08, 2012, 11:58:08 AM: Nice flowing video Muzico, congratulations on getting such a wonderful top.
I certainly agree with poptop’s comment “it looks like you've been spinning that top for years”

Watts’ Top are GREAT! Everyone should have one (or more). :)
