I thought the deal with the new torrent server was that we got disk space and bandwidth to host torrents, not direct downloads. > I don't yet have an estimate on the total size, but there are 12~ > videos, all somewhere around an hour in length.

Hosting videos has come up a few times. We host videos from FUDCon because it's our event, but have not the infrastructure to host significant amounts of video - it gets expensive (disk and bandwith both) in a hurry, and so far we haven't found a sponsor willing to underwrite this. archive.org may be a good place to try hosting these.
