Start recording and archiving the classes.
I've tried to record several classes, however there are issues.
* If disconnected during the chat, the recording is lost. (whether its losing internet connection, or the room itself reboots).
* If someone private messages me while recording, its now in the recording.
* If you have the settings wrong, it will record background noise as well. Once I recorded a class with the mic open, so my phone conversations with clients were heard too.
* The files are huge, take a lot of time to process, then more time if need editing, then time and bandwidth to upload.
* Sound only files are more manageable but you loose the power point and the video.
* All hosts (mods) also have the ability to record, and not one has reported they got a recording they liked.
And, what about storage space and bandwidth of serving these large files.
