Morning all. We sometimes (about 3 to 5 times a year) show films that are being distributed by Qube Wire. These are usually Indian films. Recently, Qube Wire contacted me and asked if I would be interested in a piece of hardware they'd hook up to my system that would allow them to just ship the DCP's and keys digitally.

I'm guessing it would be like another QNAP? They tell me it has eight CRU drives.

To both my detriment and advance, I'm a big proponent of if it ain't broke don't fix it, and I'm a little leery of hooking up new stuff for a distributor we only receive about five films a year from.

Does anyone have any information on this type of thing? Is it worth getting? I've heard literally nothing about it, and the only things I was able to find on the internet were about it being used for film festivals in India.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all,
