Didn't you post that you still have to deliver a tape back up along with the files? Curious is the file delivery viewed as a time saver and or money saver? Obviously not having to buy an HD deck is a savings but what about the risk of internet failure or the potential file corruption along the way? Is the file that much more efficient at the broadcaster's end? Given a tape can be ingested in real time to the server how much faster can a file be ingested and QC'd. Seems to me QCing a tape while it's being ingested would be faster but perhaps I'm missing the obvious.
