      I thought that sounded too high. So I worked it out: 46 episodes = 55GB That's 1.2GB per episode. ~30 minutes per episode gives 5.4 Mbits/sec. And it turned out it was pretty much spot on (Video bit rates)[^]. But I'd done the calcs, so I thought I'd just post anyway. :)

                    Now if you could just stream it to your TV using some open source hardware gizmo, you'd truly be able to say, "There's a Penguin on the telly!" :)

                      I just had the end of Bambi Meets Godzilla pop into my mind. Wrong foot. Sorry.
