Talk:Bolt (website)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

--Insaneingus 20:01, 19 August 2007 (UTC)It's not clear to me that Ben Granby's website supports the statement that 'Controversial groups, such as the International Solidarity Movement have also been know to recruit members from these sites.' Phrases like 'have been known' are shakey; known by who? Better would be, "The Washington Post wrote on the 23rd that the International Solidarity Movement recruits members from these sites." I've left in the citation as a start, but we need something better than that, or we need to remove the criticism real soon now. Tom Harrison Talk 00:36, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

While Bolt probably is a very well known identity in the United States, in Australia it is not well known at all. I have really enjoyed reading about it and the amazing growth that can take place if the inventors are willing to put all their passion and hard work into their business. I feel very fortunate to have found Wikipedia to help educate me on more of what is happening globally. I would like to also thank the author for this very well written article.

[edit] Bolt Has Been Ceased

http://bolt.com/ it has it has been ceased. can someone put that up?--Insaneingus 20:01, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

It's already been added. All the wording has been changed to past tense. Pending a buyout of the domain, there's not much more to add.Mustang6172 22:08, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Why was it shut down? It's not clear in the article. Who sued them? Why? 70.48.98.82 21:30, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
I am thinking it was the Universal Music GroupPumapayam 17:35, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
"Universal Music, Warner Music and EMI - either collectively or individually - settled claims with Napster, Kazaa and Bolt.com. Napster alone had to cough up $270 million." - http://www.nypost.com/seven/02272008/business/infringement__99428.htm

Should this not be looked into and added to the article, if details can be found? SkippyUK (talk) 09:56, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Bummer....I had an account on there for like 6 years =[/oops I forgot to log in ><Insaneingus 22:53, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey... so Bolt.com is back up. It must have been recent. All of the music has been removed and the original videos are all down, but my old account works again and they have featured videos again... Can anyone verify this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.71.59.149 (talk) 06:08, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

The site was purchased last January. The site is now operating under new management.Mustang6172 (talk) 03:13, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
