Thanks for your input. Do you have experience with binaries stored in and outside of the database? Is this really a performance issue on the server, aren't the files cached after the first request (after that I guess its equal from point of performance if I store it in the File system or the database)?
Our webserver has a max of 100Mbit/s of upload. I think (hope) that this is sufficient for the moment, however using an external provider is also a solution. Do you know by any chance good providers that offer good bandwitdh for streaming?
