A Big Thank You From PaulMcCartney.com

Paulie H:
This stuff about the paid membership creating first and second class fans is nonsense. It's a product: you either pay for it or you don't. It's like arguing that having to pay for an album creates second class fans. I'm sorry for those who can't afford such luxuries, but that doesn't make them wrong or unfair.
Again have to agree,its utter nonsense to suggest 2nd class fans where created by the premium membership,its a luxury yes but nothing was hidden behind the paywall that couldn't be found either on the site or through the internet,the way some of the more hysterical posts have suggested that we got the meaning of life with the membership we didn't and if we did i missed it As for the Kisses's download its a nice gesture but not one i will be taking up to be honest when i get it,and its not high on my list of Paul things to get fankly i'll get it on blu ray,still nice of them to offer it.

Totally agree. It is just like going to a concert. Paul is playing tonight & I'm not going. What does that mean? That means I am busy or didn't want to spemd the money to travel there. That's all.

Wow...sounds like I got lucky. It took practically no time...
You did! Even this medium one is taking over 2 hours!
What company manufactured your pc, Tonka? (kidding)
Hardy-har-har! As a matter of fact, the (in)famous HP! (and it's only a couple years old!)
What internet speed do you have? Hopefully not dial-up.

I agree. Some people can't afford to go to the concerts. It doesn't make them any less of a fan.

But it runs on kerosene, right? (OK, I'll stop)

? I just got a new computer when my other one broke, so this is the first I've read about the premium site being gone. I tried to catch up by reading some comments just to know somewhat what's going on. All I thought about without a computer was "sure now he'll be having concerts and I won't know about it . I was hoping to go just once more in my lifetime. Too expensive for me.Wanted to go for my birthday in December, but now I don't know. Keep us in touch with all that's going on. I miss my daily checks of pauls site. I'm serious--DAILY. Especially when I've been a fan since Paul was still playing the Cavern, then the Beatles really started to get noticed. But I was way ahead of them all. Still a Rock & Roll fan after all these years and always will be. Love you Paul!! )

Loved the website the way it was. Miss all the extra features and videos! Miss the jukebox!!! Sorry you had to discontinue my premium membership! I shall miss using the site!!!!! cry

Email finally arrived and I did get my download. Took about 20 minutes to download the large file on a 50 M down connection to my 2010 iMac.

I havent recieved my download email yet have sent Topspin a message to see if they can sort it for me
-
I like the PDF booklet but the free downloads pretty naff
-
I downloaded and really love the Live Kisses video. I'd like to sit back and watch it on my TV so I tried burning it to a DVD but haven't been able to. Was the file sent blocking copies from being made? Understandable since it will be out commercially. Also is there supposed to be the extras that are on the DVD - the music videos with signing? I printed the booklet and it's also great. Love all the songs and the talk in between! Wasn't a fan of the songs until Paul's version!

The download seems to be the single video file of the show/documentary itself and also includes the booklet pdf, none of DVD extras are included. I can't comment on whether the file has features preventing burning perhaps other members might provide feedback if they have tried themselves. Martin

I had no problem burning the (medium sized) file to a DVD!

Prompted by this query I have a conversion and burn running successfully at the moment. I suspect it's just an incompatibility between the file type - .mp4 - and your burning software rather than the file having any kind of write protection embedded. Try another DVD burning programme - you may have alternatives linked to programmes such as Windows Media Player or even iTunes already on your PC, other wise there are good third party programmes available at no cost (freeware) on the net.

If you want to burn the file to DVD, it might be best to transfer the MP4 file to a .AVI file. This should make it easier.
-
Thanks so much to everyone for your input. I will try your suggestions regarding burning the Live Kisses to DVD. I do remember a window telling me something about the file being incompatible. The file size says Large for my download.
