Well, like any good video editor I back up to more than one location, but that's neither here nor there for this discussion.
Anyway, I have to go to bed now--early shoot tomorrow morning--but I'm glad to see my topic get some traction. As a quick note to everyone, though--as I've said I'm not just talking about high end HD downloads. I'm talking about digital distribution methods as a whole. Most people don't need to have the film in HD. Standard def type quality, and sometimes worse, is enough for most people, and that's, in my mind, enough for it to even within the next few years take over as the primary market for post-theater film viewing.
My consoles and the fates they suffered:
Atari 7800 (Sold), Intellivision (Thrown out), Gameboy (Lost), Super Nintendo (Stolen), Super Nintendo (2nd copy) (Thrown out by mother), Nintendo 64 (Still own), Super Nintendo (3rd copy) (Still own), Wii (Sold)
A more detailed history appears on my profile.
