I haven't heard or read anything, but the website does appear to be down. I visited the site earlier this year to reread some of the free transcripts. At the time, the website was up and running.
The site was pretty "out-of-date", so it's possible that it is simply being revamped. Of course, it's also possible that the people running OID have called it quits.
It could be that more people are turning to Tilson's "Digest", Value Investor Insight. It's in the same vein as OID, and most likely appeals to the same crowd. (I'm not saying Buffett reads it or would recommend it, but then again, neither would surprise me either.) You can take a look at a free issue or two by visiting the VII site.
I've read about half a dozen VII issues. Sometimes the interviews are good, and sometimes I haven't enjoyed them that much. I've contemplated a subscription a couple of times, but it's a pretty steep price for entertainment. Some will tell you that it is an invaluable source to learn how great investors think. You can definitely get a flavor for how some decent investors think, but most are not giving away any secrets. Mostly what you'll find is promoting of stocks in which these guys have already built substantial positions.
Hope this helps, 'tato
