Lucky you. You must have 2000 broadband or so! Only way to get it quicker
is to get 8MB broadband! Are you in an NTL cable area? Sadly, bytes have a
habit of arriving one by one at the speed of your connection... ;-). The
movie is already at max compression, so there's no easier way, unless one
starts re-authoring the movie and really kill the quality. As it is it take
6 hours to put the movie on the server!
