The ubi.com department of Ubi Soft charges all development budgets for the amount of time they spend working on product-specific websites, PLUS all time that their servers are used to download files for that product (either by the minute or by the MB -- not sure which). Either way, what it basically amounted to is that, if we put up the 5.6 GB of data on their site, given our conservative estimate at how often these files would be downloaded our entire marketing and advertising budget would be completely shot (and then some). It is simply not feasible given the current cost structure. But, something may change in the future. If such a change occurs, this board will be the first one I notify. jm
