Thought about the deliver system

Based our forum’s new function is give the user space for them upload and streaming the movies, so the deliver system is the higher request

I did the research as below:
1) ICA – I’m not quite sure about this tech, I just know it is a desk can open anywhere, user can get the data form the desk very safely, but this specialize tech seems very expansive.

2) BT- it have the security problem so I think that might gets trouble for the users, although BT have the main advantage is can reduce the bandwidth traffic, also need not a big storage server for the movies up and down loading.


3) FTP- it is very popular way to deliver the large file, the thing is user have to download the software firstly then can download the file, I don’t know weather the users can be get up set.

4) PHP – I don’t know how many cost and how long if fire a group PHP programmer to build up whole new things, but why not try?

Other thing is how are users streaming the movies? Which format of the movies I can choose?
The first idea I got is using window media player and quick time streaming tech, it seems the quick time streaming is not free, I m goanna chick it.

thought about the personal page

The personal page is including 6 sections, which are home page, profile, and blog, photo, list and film.

Home page: show the user’s simple profile fixed, other sections will be appear the latest information automatically. Also have setting and customize operation.

Profile:
User’s normal info such as name, location, age and User’s aviator something like that.
User’s forum info like ranking, points, signature and so on.
User’s forum activity info such as join date, total posts, last activity …
User’s contact info: e-mail, MSN, ICQ, homepage, message button (other’s can leave the message), buddy button (other’s can add you into their buddy group)

List:
User can choose any topic list as them like; they can create everything by themselves

Film:
Enlarge the film section for more suitable for the film forum, user’s can put their film in here.

The key thing about the personal page I thought is:
Try to show more details about user, and then others can by the sort-researching find their buddy easily.
Try to make a more comfortable environment for user, encourage their willing filling their detail and comment, not force then fill up everything before the registration.
