April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberThe difference is in the layers of sound. Alien, music, ambience, and Samus moaning.

Memberoh, that's new :P
I'll remember to turn on my speakers before asking next time. Too used to no sound at all on video files here

JanitorStill, 5 versions for so slight differences is kinda...cheap.
Just upload the regular HD version, then have gfycat link in description and link to source with other versions with alternate_version_available tag.
Because right now all the sources are missing, added tumblr post and respective source links.

MemberI mean sure there are differences, but do they really do anything but take up space? One of the descriptions said that it just had a different music. Like, really? Is a different music really _that_ important?

JanitorOne possible thing to do is to mux all the audios into single file, because the video is literally identical, making it possible to upload just one version.
However problem with that is that browsers and mobile doesn't seem to be able to switch the audio track from primary one. At least not without extra coding on webpage. But downloading and watching it with video player works wonderfully.
