Our typical file size has been roughly ~120mb and that's only with a low bitrate h264 compression and 96khz mono audio. The issue with the paid version of MF as well is that there is a bandwidth cap, so we'd be back in the same boat as we were in when my current media hosts. The 45 second delay is kinda crappy with megaupload, but I also paid for the account there so that the links will never die out and we get unmetered bandwidth with them. @jayfunk thanks for the suggestion, we actually used to use mediafire, but their max file size is too small for our videos.

So does that mean that you were able to record the Soul Fresh performance? is it going up anytime soon? If not, then we got our own copy, I just haven't seen it yet....lol Sean, it’s charles from sickstep again.

I'm just wondering because I know choreo cookies wanted their video offline and also km legacy, but maybe I'm just ignorant and can't see why someone would want that. Pros as I see it (having a video up): free viral publicity, teams can understand the development of your style and watch growth, assist in pushing the creative limits of the scene by encouraging new innovative styles, and also you may not win a competition, but you might win most downloaded/watched vid :) Cons: teams might copy a piece (but in our community you get called out for w/o hesitation), perhaps the fear of people getting tired of your set, but I can't see that being too incredibly valid. I need some help filling out this list. Thanks for your input guys, coming from the other side of the camera and screen it's hard for me to get it, even as a choreographer and dancer myself, but I am really interested to learn the reasons why.
