iAreButterz Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The other day I went to go log on DPRtube, and it gave me a message saying they shut it down. I wonder why, it was such a good site. If anyone knows any other sites like DPRtube feel free to share! Link to comment
Elfy Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Probably bandwidth costs. Hosting video isn't cheap. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 We have the bandwidth to support a similar saet-up, but we'd need to raise about $300 to pay for a good script, domain and such, and would need a volunteer or two to help keep it clean of copyrighted stuff, poop and kids. Link to comment
Dirty Diaper/Maxipad Lover Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Probably bandwidth costs. Hosting video isn't cheap. I can almost guarantee you that this was likely the driving force behind DPRTube closing. They never seemed to have the level of ads that I'd expect on a free site, and that likely meant they couldn't afford the bandwidth they needed. It also didn't help that their videos took forever to load, (more indications of a bandwidth problem,) and that people such as myself lost interest in their content when it took five minutes to get a one minute clip to play. If members stopped using the site, they also likely stopped clicking on the ads that were there, and that likely caused DPRTube to close. It didn't help that other sites with content hosted elsewhere like ABDLVids were trouncing them in load times. Link to comment

SunOfSheep Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 You can host things like that for 40$ on a dedicated server (soyoustart.com I have a few e3 boxes with them) if they could not make that amount they wear doing something wrong... Link to comment

Dirty Diaper/Maxipad Lover Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I think you are vastly over crediting that site, or under crediting OVH (the company that owns sys) I'm likely over crediting the site based on outdated information. These Link to comment
DailyDi Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Those are good server pricing and it seems they do allow adult content if you have a warning screen. 2 Link to comment

Elfy Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I have to admit to liking watching messy nappies from time to time Fortunately there are plenty of places all over the web that have that content, I think it would be a needless risk for DD to start hosting it if it came with even a small risk of shutting the site down as a result! 2 Link to comment
SunOfSheep Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) Legally questionable, and the fact that i find it 'gross' would make it hard to defend it if I ever had to. If Edited August 5, 2015 by SunOfSheep Link to comment
Mars.inDiapers Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 How come it's legally questionable? Is it because there are laws in US against scat Link to comment
SunOfSheep Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hmm, That script is free, so I could host it (poop-free still if I do it) if people want The obscenity law in the US is open to interpretation as it uses the "I know it when I see it" unclear reasoning Link to comment
DailyDi Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Cool. You want to help set it up, or willing to run it for the most part? Link to comment

While it's not my thing, (I feel the same way Mikey does about them,) I do know that there are more than a few AB/DLs who like seeing messy diapers. However, as you've noted, there are plenty of places that already cater to that, and I agree that it's an unnecessary risk for DD to start hosting such content. (We can still see used/wet diapers without a problem, I'd be more concerned if we couldn't show any use of them at all.) How come it's legally questionable?

I think that this is part of it, combined with what Mikey's mentioned about the weird way our obscenity laws are structured in the states. 1 Link to comment
