Few less signups but also less bandwith so balanced out to be almost the net income.
Now if I list wmv galleries on top spots of my mgps overall click to the galleries go down versus if I use mpeg galleries on top. So I always list mpegs on top. With tours I think maybe a better idea to use wmv however cos people coming to tours maynot be in as much hurry as they maybe when they are at galleries  |
Oh man those were the good old days.
Single rate ram files for hun galleries. (I remember using real's free editor proggie, and typing in commands into a dos prompt to tell it what part of the video to render and at what bitrate)
The bandwidth savings were huge compared to mpeg, especially considering I was paying like $2+ per gig at the time.
Signups were insane because hardly anybody was giving away movies on galleries back then, and free hosted galleries didn't exist yet, so every TGP and their brother listed the gallery for free, I never even submitted them.
