Kia ora

Quick update - Vimeo seems to do its own transcoding to video files as
it uploads them. It failed to upload the Theora/ Matroska file at all,
and I'm not sure that the WebM file is still WebM. So, for now, I've
created a torrent for these files (attached), using Transmission and
some public trackers
(http://extratorrent.com/article/71/public+open+torrent+trackers.html),
and I'm seeding them from my PC.

I'd be keen for feedback on whether these files can be successfully
downloaded, and whether they work when they arrive. They are both less
than half the file size of the original MP4 version, so I'm keen for
opinions on how they compare quality-wise.

"The content industry has done a good job convincing the world that
the internet will enable what they call 'piracy' That has obscured the
fact that the internet will also enable an extraordinary potential for
creativity. And it has obscured the fact that the weapons they use to
eradicate 'piracy' will also destroy the environment for this
'creativity.' They spray DDT to kill a gnat. We say: 'Silent Spring.'"
