Mad, part of the quality of clipstream (and any streaming media) is based on the 'net access to the web site that contains the files, the closer the site the faster the files download, a good example is yahoo, download time for page 1 is 4 seconds anywhere in N/A as they have mirror sites all over the place, the mirror sites contain exactly the same info as the main site , your local gateway will then direct you to the closest mirror site = faster download time.

Mad, a post from RB " Just spoke with Destiny IR. They received a letter from ZDnet informing them that their Media Player is among the most popular 5% of all downloads available on ZDNet, and as such, qualifies for free hosting for the file on ZDNet's in-house serving infrastructure." This is great news, ZDNet is giving Destiny free mirror server service all over the place, that will result in shorter player download times for all, plus it is a big vote for DSNY as ZDNet is independantly declaring the Destiny player as a top 5% download request.
