Pirate Bay has, beside the legal issues here in Sweden, continued its struggle against movie and music companies. Its latest attack is a new site for streaming video and music, like YouTube, but based on the new HTML5 format. The name of the site is, very fittingly, The Video Bay and after a closed beta testing it has now decided to publish a public presentation of the site. They show two examples of how video and music can stream from the site using the ogg/theora formats.
The functionality is very limited and they do say that users should not expect anything to work, the site is in "Beta Extreme". While it does have HTML5 support, there are only one stable browser that supports it today, the just released Firefox 3.5. Beta versions of Opera and Safari also support HTML5.
They don't know when the site will be read, but one thing is certain. They will allow pretty much anything, even supposedly copyrighted material.
