Hi,i'm in the UK and for the past couple of weeks at least i have been unable to run bobs tutorials from here...any idea whats up?
Bobs videos will no longer run from TIB in the UK
tel I'm in the uk too and haven't been able to view bobs videos for months. I bypassed two inch brush and went direct to youtube and for a while I could see them there but then they disappeared from there as well. Just checked and they seem to be back up and running on youtube to my surprise. I assumed it was something to do with bobrossincorportated holding back the back the videos for reasons only known to them.
BRI only ever has one motivation, and it's not mysterious.
VPNs are wonderful things. I have discovered even digital things on Amazon I thought I "owned" sometimes disappear when I go abroad. But a simple browser add-on and they think I'm in Los Angeles.
Ian_Adkins I suspect there's a perfectly good reason why Steve Ross has nothing to do with them.

TheLandscapePainter I think Steve was financially cut out, unintentionally, when Bob married the last time before his death. That didn't preclude him from continuing to work at BRI, but something else went down, and there's bad blood now. You get little snippets of the story here and there, but no one is ever willing to go on record for fear of BRI's lawyers. That was the story on a book by three academics a few years ago (Happy Trees, Happy Clouds, I think, Congdon et al.)--they were stonewalled by BRI, and everyone else they tried talking to were afraid of being sued. I was feeling out a research project myself and got a little taste of the same. When BRI claims Bob was very private and they're jealously guarding that privacy, one gets the feeling it's just as much about keeping the dirty laundry out of view.
