The Blog for Video 2.0

HungryFlix.com is releasing system improvements today that will greatly enhance the site's ability to handle larger file sizes and scalability to more users.

These improvements have led the site to increase their maximum file size from 500MB to 1GB. Content providers have always been able to store as many files as they wish but with the file size doubled, the door is open to more HD content.

"We are seeing growth on both sides of the HD equation" said HungryFlix CEO Brian Andrews. "Prosumer HD equipment is now in the hands of more filmmakers and producers. These people are shooting in HD and want to present their content in the best possible resolution. Likewise, we are seeing growth in the home media server market with game consoles, slingbox and Apple TV. So we now have both providers and consumers look for HD quality."

HungryFlix.com's goal is to provide consumers and providers with the most choice available anywhere. Users can purchase DRM-free content and move it from one device to another without restrictions.
