Save your customers money by hosting media on https://silverlight.live.com/

if you have any portal solution that incubates media (audio, video) you can either

1- save those files on local servers (file server or sharepoint)

2- store them on a media host service like silverlight.live.com

so basically the 2nd option will save your storage cost and bandwidth cost. you dont have to design around your bandiwdth limitation anymore and you hopefully you dont have to ask for a bigger SAN.

    Just to make that clear, it is the free service that is being retired - not Silverlight itself. ... and it's shame they will not be offering the same free storage when Azure is born :-(
