What is the best way to deliver a video program?
Hello Devshed;

I have built a website with php mysql and I sell a 45 minute video program which is about 500 mb on disc. I have set up the database and orders so I store each paid email address in database (Paypal IPN).

What is the best way to deliver this program?

1 - Get them to pay online and send them a hard copy.
2 - Get them to pay online and send them a temporary download link and let them download it with php?

Thanks

Seems like the second option would be a lot cheaper and more convenient.

I thought I give them the option of both stream (jwplayer) or download. At anytime. But stream option will expire in 6 month.
