I found some Australian dude who said that he's working in a large corporation with international connection, and they only get ~90 mbps on a very expensive link. Consumer grade connections are supposedly much worse than that, especially when uploading.

If he's saying the truth (and I really can't see the reason for him to lie), we're kind of screwed. I could probably get someone to upload, say, 25GB of a finished release, but if a single LD capture is something like 150GB or more, and 35mm reaching 17TB... That just can't be done.

There are two options: all the post-processing being done in Australia, or sending the hard drives back and forth.
