Default i have a question about orb!

ok first of all, thank u to the person who introduced me to the GREATEST program ever!!.

second of all, i have a question.

To kick off my orb account, i loaded about 50 anime episodes into my

account. Then i watched them on my pocket pc. what i would like to know is when i load the videos onto the website and view them on my desktop
pc, am i downloading or streaming the file TO my desktop pc? or not. i
really need to know because i have a download limit and i dont want to
waste my downloads.


thank u extremely in advance for any replies

As I recall from my conversation with the Orb guy, all of the actual video stays on your PC. Viewing it on your PC shouldn't result in internet activity, and you should even be able to run streams over your local network to a PPC without needing internet access.

I'm just curious as to why in the world you would want to do this. Don't get me wrong orb is great and everything but the streaming downgrades the quality of your video. Just open them up on your computer or over your network or whatever.
