Downloadable Vs Streaming Video

MissEve · 02-21-2003

I've always had streaming video instead of downloadable because I thought that members would stay longer if they couldnt just download a bunch of video and cancel. Am I retarded?

I guess Im starting to think that if you have a slow connection you might start a download and let it go instead of trying to watch streamed video that looks like shit on a dialup.

Any ideas? If I started offering downloads what format and what size of clips should I offer? Now I have full length movies streamed in Real broken down into 3-5 parts.
