OK so Vudu laid off a bunch of employees today.
I know even some of the guys that started it are now gone!
Give them a call.......Voicemail....voicemail.....voicemail never get anyone on the phone anymore.
No longer have any tech support at all....please email us and maybe someone will reply is the recording before it hangs up on you.
And the last sales guy I met from VUDU was a complete moron or........
Hope he got axed today!



Well I hate apple tv but at least they have more than 4 employees!!!
Hope someone can get this category right since nobody has yet....

Vudu has not gone anywhere. There was a thinning out today most likely due to pleasing investors but they are in no way shape or form going out. Vudu has some very sharp people working for them and unfortunately one of those people left today as a part of the thinning. He will be missed.

Well they have about 90 days left before the liquidate or sell out!
This came from inside the walls of vudu.
Every movie studio currently is upset with them because they have not sold even a fraction of what they planned to sell!
Matter of time for them and the fuse it lit
Even porn will not save this boat now...the iceberg cut a big hole and Leonardo is not on board to even make it a swan song hit!

Nobody thought HD DVD would die either with millions behind it.

Alright, Mark, you're profile says to "ask away" about your "major AV career". Well, then, elaborate. Please. With your arrogant attitude, petty nature and piss poor communication skills, I want to be certain to avoid you or any company you rep. Thanks in advance.

Well that's solid for sure.

Stan...I told you to go with ATV!

And who thinks porn will ever push a company like this into profitability anyway? What was that Canadian company called that had 3d porn again :-/

Hey Mark, nice to see another someone from the Bay Area...So were you laid off too?

I bet mark isn’t' even your real name, you just set that email account up today to get this post. LOL. Not that there is a problem with that.

Anyway, that sucks if they go under, we just signed on about a month ago, but have yet to sell one. Apple TV doesn't have the control features, but the music and photos make it. Plus Media Center Extenders are easier now and the PPV features have promise to improve and offer a more Vudu ATV "like" experience.

I think that if Vudu could get the NAS add-on available along with a client player, so that everything could be stored centrally and served throughout the home, and a way to RIP existing movies they would really have something, like a scalable KS or Escient System.

I think if they did lots of things they would be successful but that would require them doing lots of things to be successful.

OK I did use a fake last name but that is my email has been for over a year and um dude you are smart

I'll add another - wow wow wow.

Is this guy for real? Did anyone really care about VUDU anyway? I like ATV's... either in the gear rack or in the mud. ;)
