That was freaky! I live in Trollhättan and did NOT expect to immediately recognize the background scene of a picture linked-to from HN.

If I'm not mistaken, here's the bench - https://www.google.com/maps/@58.2749468,12.270221,3a,60y,141... .

While it's right by the Olidan Hydroelectric Power Station, the photographer used a telephoto lens so Rosa Mannen is in the foreground and the upstream Hojum Hydroelectric Power Station is in the background. Here's a closer shot of Hojum:

Youtube banned the archivist Jeff Quitney a few years ago. This particularly stings because a lot of wikipedia articles still cite and link to videos he uploaded. You can find (most of?) his videos here now: https://archive.org/download/Jeff_Quitney_me

There was a Danish church organist I came across on YouTube, who had worked his way through pretty much every Danish hymnal/school song book, and many Swedish and Norwegian ones too. He'd been at it for years. Then suddenly he was gone. I assume one too many of the songs he'd played must have had been too recent, and got copystriked. It's pretty sad that even marginal, plainly non-commercial work of an archival natur…

I bet whatever songs got him banned were in the public domain, but ContentID thought it sounded too much like a copyrighted recording of the same song. This sort of thing happens all the time to musicians who upload themselves playing classical songs. It's infuriating.

To be clear: I'm not suggesting he archive a youtube video using the Wayback machine. (Does this even work?) I am suggesting he upload the files directly.

Perhaps this rule should be added to https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html? Or is it already there and I missed it?

The design of that https://www.svtplay.se/ site is nice. I like the page transition when you hit play.

SVT is public service TV in Sweden. SvtPlay their online streaming service. Lots of opinions about SVT (as there should be, it’s public!) but if you ask me, it’s super high quality and it’s something that I’m very proud of, as someone from Sweden.

SVT Play is a gold mine of high quality content. The music documentaries they did with BBC were amazing.

Happy to fund it with my tax money, independent public service is important, and honestly I'm using it more than Netflix and HBO and the rest.

I just wish that I as a Swede living abroad could watch the Swedish language content.

It's not like På Spåret is going to be sold abroad anyway.

I don’t know specifically about På Spårer, but it’s not unusual that they licences the idea and format of the show, and that’s why they only are allowed to show it in Sweden.

That doesn’t explain why my kids can’t watch Beppes Godnattstund while we are abroad though.
