how do I deliver 75 gigs of PLR video?

Brad Gosse · 10-06-2009, 08:41 AM

So I have 75 gigs of pro produced fitness videos in uncompressed MOV format.

I am thinking of offering these as a PLR package and I am trying to determine how to deliver them. Here are my choices.

1. Compress to DVD quality MPEG-2 (probably end up around 15 gigs)
2. Leave as is.
3. Compress to another transport format. (suggestions)

Then finally do I make them downloadable or physical delivery?

I would love to hear from anyone who buys PLR video on the regular

Brad,

I just recently purchased a rather large file of 30 PLR Video. The seller set up a download page, which made it pretty easy for me. However those without DSL or higher would have a long download time on each video.

In that case perhaps you could give them a choice of the download page or physical delivery of CD, with a S&H fee, just enough to cover the actual cost of sending the CD.

With that amount of video it's a tough one. You could compress it down into 640 x 480 avi's and deliver those as a download - but it still may be significant.

Alternatively, you can deliver the raw footable on an external harddrive, e.g. Freecom Toughdrive (?) I think it is? If you can zip it up you may get it to fit on one of those new 64GB USB keys?

The DVD Quality MPEG's at 15GB aren't too bad as you could deliver them on DVD via a company like Kunaki for example.

All the best

Office Deport had a sale yesterday with a 50 disk DVD spindle for $11.95, but rather than burn a bunch of disks I would upload my stuff on Youtube and make it private invitation only. Like a video for your a "family".

Hello,
many people have itunes on their home computer,
you can put it in that format as well.
I believe that is the most compressed you can get.

I know some people don't like compressed PLR video which is what I am trying to figure out. I like the idea

Colin Palfrey · 10-06-2009, 09:29 AM

First thing that came to mind "In a suitcase," is probably not helpful.

I do think that sending a spindal of DVD's through the post will be your only answer though.

Karan Goel · 10-06-2009, 09:34 AM

Do not compress it. People won't like to uncompress it and wait for hours!

Here is my suggestion:
Divide the DVD's into parts - let's say 10 parts of 7.5 gigs each.
Open a membership site that delivers this DVD every week..

LincolnKK · 10-06-2009, 09:36 AM

Use Kunaki:

- They burn your data on a disk
- Color Printed DVD inlay
- Color Printed Insert
- Color Printed DVD
- Plastic wrap everything
- Ship worldwide to your customer on demand (1 or xxxx items)
- You can automate the process to be hand-free

They are great!

PS: All that for 5.75$ total

EDIT: OOPS, didn't notice that it was actually 70+ GB!

Luckies · 10-06-2009, 09:40 AM

If I'd buy PLR video materials I would personally like to have both uncompressed MOV files as well as DVD compressed movies (since it'd save me some time).

I think air mail shipment is the best choiche. Avoid ground shipment since is usually too slow.

Lance K · 10-06-2009, 09:45 AM

Set your price, then buy an external hard drive. Load the videos in all formats and ship to your buyers.

I'd gladly pay for the cost of the hard drive, as well as a shipping & handling fee.

Matt Maiden · 10-06-2009, 10:21 AM

DVDs that you handle or find a fulfillment company.

I'm just thinking about the amount of time you're giving someone to start getting buyer's remorse while they are downloading.

Joe118 · 10-06-2009, 10:45 AM

Brad, I'd use CreateSpace.com, they're an amazon company: https://www.createspace.com/

Solves all your headaches. I didn't compare their rates to kunaki, probably undercutting them

mikeyman120 · 10-06-2009, 10:50 AM

You would have to compress it. I would buy a great video PLR course but I simply don't have room for that much video. I have 6.8 GIGs of product in my audio plr site in my sig and I thought that was huge, DVD as mentioned might be the way to go if its gonna be 75 GIGs.

Convert them to flash using On2 Flix Pro then upload them to your own amazon S3 account so people can download them. Its pretty cheap bandwidth-wise and the flash conversion should shrink them up to a manageable state...

BrianMcLeod · 10-06-2009, 08:13 PM

Brad,

External hard drive for uncompressed editable files seems to me about the only sensible delivery method for 75 gigs of data.

External Hard Drives, Cheap External Hard Drives, Firewire External Hard Drives, Portable External Hard Drives

Even then, loading up each drive is gonna take time.

Better be charging a pretty penny, bro!

Best,

Brian

mikomiko · 10-07-2009, 04:18 PM

omg, how long is the video? 15 gigs in mpeg2 - so I assume 6 hrs?

also for delivery method - I also thought of hard-drive, and compressed for download (via s3 or other service) for folks who want hq avi to edit for web purposes.

DrewG · 10-07-2009, 04:30 PM

Yep, I was going to say the external harddrive route. See if you can get them at a discount from somewhere for buying in bulk...

s4nt0s · 10-07-2009, 04:32 PM

You also need to note that the file size limit on a FAT32 partitioned hard drive is 4GB.

So if your video downloads are not broken into chunks smaller than 4GB and your customers have their hard drive partitioned in FAT32, they will need to convert to NTFS in order to download.

I found the conversion process to be easy but for the technically inclined, going into command prompt and typing commands might be more than their willing to do.

Anyways, let us know if you find a good solution.

Jason_V · 10-07-2009, 04:45 PM

Brad,

Here's where multiple pricing format could be your friend.

Cheapest is compressed and dowloadable

Mid-price is compressed and sent via DVD (Customers can also download the compressed version online if they want to, while waiting for DVD to arrive.)

Most expensive is buy bulk external hard drives and deliver the uncompressed files (You could also include the compressed DVD's packaged with the external hard drive, and give them access to the downloadable files while they're waiting for their external drive and DVD's to arrive free of charge.)

You could also mention to the people who buy the mid-level and expensive packages that they can copy and burn the DVD you provide to them when they sell to their customers. Another good selling point for the higher priced packages. (You could also provide the label art that you used to them free of charge so they can use it as is or modify it to their taste)

P.S. I don't really think you have to worry too much about your customers not having high speed internet. I don't think there would be too many buyers of PLR video on dial up. (I could be wrong, but I just don't see how this would be possible.)

Oh, yeah, one more thought, you could always convert them into torrents. Very large files are easily transmitted this way. Not that I know anything about that or anything. This is what I've heard.
