Important notice about videos

Added 2017-08-16 20:48:12 +0000 UTC

Recently I noticed that my DCM Studios Online website has been seeing a lot of bandwidth usage - so much so that it's cost me $90 over the past three days! (I fund my websites in advance, and the hosting service sends me notices when my balance falls below certain levels; a $20 deposit is usually good for a couple of months, but for three days in a row now, I've had to add money to my account simply to keep my sites online!)

I think it's because I've started to host my Q&A videos (and others, like the Red animatic) at my site; the large file sizes have apparently caused a spike in the site's bandwidth.

So I'll be deleting the videos from my site to see if that alleviates the problem; and soon I'll be uploading the videos to my Dailymotion account. When I do, I'll drop a link in a post along with the password.

I apologize for any inconvenience this might cause, and I thank you for your patience and forbearance.

UPDATE: I've deleted only the Patreon Q & A videos; that was over 10 GB of potential bandwidth overages! The Charlotte, Tetsuko and Red videos are still there because they're relatively tiny files.
