So I've got a couple of questions.... First of which being why can't
people just email this stuff?

Second being, and this is probably a question for legal, in order to
submit that stuff to us via a web form, wouldn't we need to require cla
done?

Third being, how large of files are we talking about emailing around (be
very specific)? Email and video often seem ill suited to eachother.
