In my experience, when on campus - no bandwidth issues. People aren't really lining up to watch those titles all at once or all of the time. And our professors love the segments options so it isn't necessarily entire films being watched all at once. For off campus students proxying in, it can be a bit much for some student's connections - think rural, older or slow computers used by distance students. There's nothing for that, really. And FMG streams, rather than allow them to download and watch, of course.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
