Dropbox, Video in HD, and SHARING!
(I'm feeling Fibrillated)


Only a few short days ago, I was introduced to Dropbox. Dropbox is a brilliant way to do remote storage, sync, and backups. It's currently in beta. The application looks to me like it has some serious potential.

One thing that it can do quite well is allow you to share files with other people. How? Like this!

As I type this, my Tree of Shame video is still uploading. Once it is up, you can watch it in glorious 720p High Definition! You just need some bandwidth to keep up. Or you can just download the file and play it locally. The difference in quality between the 720p version and the LV version is stunning. I've also got my Deals Gap DVD teaser up. Same deal applies.

I'm thinking of skipping out on the DVD idea altogether. Why not just deliver a video in HD? Well, space is a real issue. So is bandwidth. It depends on how things play out.

I've been using Dropbox since it was a closed beta. It's awesome. Cross platform, can't argue with that... I do wish it were 5GB instead of 2 though...
Work Share, Family Share, Public Share... so sweet.

If I'm going to post any videos this way, I'm really going to have to compress them more. Both videos are running over 8mbps. Even if you have that kind of bandwidth, it doesn't mean that Dropbox will send a file out that fast. I can reduce the quality by going down to 5mbps. I might want to drop down to DVD's 720x480 size if I do that though.

With h.264 in DVD resolution, I could probably get away with 2-3mbps.

Just watched both the vids...Took a little while for them to load but once they did the quality was amazing. I am gonna try that place out.
