making it any less confusing.

Worked there, majority owner, six of one, 1/2 dozen of another...

So you're saying you want to force the people at Userland (employed by a company
you essentially own) to start serving up what will arguably be a HUGE file?
This on top of the already limited performance those servers are offering?  Hmm,
that doesn't sound like something paying customers are going to be too thrilled
about.

It's that sort of administrative irresponsibility /some/ of us are trying to
avoid.
