AMD Live Mediacenter users have direct access to YouSendIt to send large files and Applian Replay A/V is going to have an interface to YouSendIt, so you can send recordings to yourself from one PC to another device.
With all the new traffic, our IT team significantly expands our storage capacity and all the issues that you may have experienced over the last days, when a file did not upload immediately or the system was not responsive enough, should be gone by next week. Our statistics show that very few customers are affected, which obviously is little help if it's your file that has problems.

This helps tracking down your issues.
