I want to serve them in blocks of 10-15 minutes at a time. That way the dsl user can get it immediately and the 56k user can get it overnight.

Is .mpeg the best way to deliver video in this way? Or would streaming it be better? I'm also open to REal Player. I'm not concerned with crystal clear quality. I just want decent viewable quality.

For you that serve video, how do your customers prefer to get it?

Mpeg-1 is the best.
DONT use REal Player - the format is great, but the player SUX!! and will fux up most computers.
If you want a alternative, you might want to try Xdiv (its a free OpenSource Mpeg-4) It will reduse your bandwith bill a lot

If you need one to do the job, just say so. I just finished my backlog, so Im ready for new customers - my ICQ is in the signature
