More news about Blip.tv and it's load carrying abilities:
The people at Blip sent me a very nice and encouraging email that I
gather was as a result of following this group's threads and reading
our posts. It's obvious from that correspondence that they care very
much about their service and performance.
In addition, my partner has been in touch with their
hosting/bandwidth provider about serving our own site and it's clear
from his correspondence with their hosting service that they are
working with blip and others to try to ammeliorate the bandwidth
challenges posed by our big media files.
