This is something that we should realy be careful. I am speaking here
with my a LoCo member hat on.
It will give a real stop to many of our promotion activites if we
cannot give CD to anyone who is interested. And proving usb media
won't be possible due to the price gap.
We might still have the dvd option (a dvd with 1Go iso) but it is
clearly something to consider before making such move.  But I
completly trust you judgement Martin on that point.
