MotionBox Sold to Snapfish

I’ve been a MotionBox Premium user for almost 2 years now, and this evening I received an email saying they sold themselves to Snapfish.  Lucky for us, we get to use Snapfish free for a year!  If only you could hear my voice, there’s plenty of sarcasm in it.

Offering Snapfish for a year is a joke.  Why?  Because it in no way compares to what I’ve come to expect from MotionBox.  I quickly created a Snapfish account to try it out, but found:

  • No HD playback
  • No video embedding in other sites like this blog.
  • 500 MB video file limit
  • 10-minute video limit

Anyone have any suggestions for a replacement?  My wishlist (all things I had with MotionBox) is:

  • Unlimited number of videos and storage
  • No video size limit
  • No video length limit
  • HD playback
  • SD quality fallback for those viewers not on a fast connection
  • Embeddable videos
  • Automatic transcoding between formats – including iPhone compatible.
  • Privacy and sharing features (easy to view by intended recipients)

R.I.P. MotionBox, I think you’ve left plenty of disappointed customers behind.
