Hey guys, I got a site up, just want to know how I could stream videos (if that's even possible via AppHarbor)... I don't want to put my videos in the DB obviously, should I put them in the solution project of VS2010? If so, I don't want to have to reupload every single video every single time. Any suggestions on what I should do in regards to streaming videos? (It's G-rated content FYI).

    We don't recommend it, but your could add the videos to your solution as content. Git is pretty clever about about figuring out what has changed, and will only transfer files that have changed.

    We highly recommend placing videos in Amazon S3 and serving them from there. that will also give you access to an excellent CDN, should you come to need that.

    Let us know if you have any questions.
