When these (the bigfiles) were put together the video quality on both youtube and google was just too low to be usable (ie you couldn't tell what was on the screens, and these are mostly screen recordings with voice-over).

The main place these files are used (AFAIK) is from this page: http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH/Framework+Introduction+Videos+and+Diagrams -David On Dec 15, 2009, at 3:16 PM, Jeroen van der Wal wrote: > The introduction vidoes could be moved to youtube or another video > service and then embedded into a wiki page.
