"Basically VideoBlocks.com is the answer to our customers who
requested the ability to download content instead of having it shipped
on DVD. VideoBlocks.com is wholly owned by Footage Firm, but the two
sites continue to exist simultaneously with two distinctively different
models: Footage Firm offers topical content by the collection, and still ships all orders on hard stock because of the sheer size (each of our
give away collections typically contains 10 DVDs and about 40 gigs of
content). While VideoBlocks.com doesn't yet offer everything in the
Footage Firm archive, we do have over 30,000 clips of footage,
backgrounds and effects, and are adding almost 1,000 more per week. For
$49, Video Blocks users can download as much as they like.
One of the reasons that Footage Firm and Video Blocks content
will never be exactly the same is because we work with a variety of
third party contributors with Footage Firm, but all of the content on
Video Blocks is wholly owned by us (or licensed in perpetuity). That is
why VideoBlocks.com is able to allow for unlimited downloading: because
we own all of the content, compared to the majority of
our competitors who rely on contributors."

Subject: [Avid-L2] Footage firm give-away stuff
What's the deal with these guys giving away graphics stuff? I'm sure they get our emails from user's groups, so someone here probably has tried it. Is there a 'scam' or catch? Is it actually useable material? I'm not sure I'd pay for 'digital juice,' but I have certainly used the backgrounds I got for free for industrial-type presentations and stuff.
