@Mwirima,
Sorry if that sounded like a rant. I try to be as solution-oriented as
possible.

Perhaps I should explain myself. The friend who requested my help is a
Kenyan musician whose video was done by a Ugandan shop. The edited content
was to be sent back in time for a press conference this morning. He told me
that the Ugandan company had been trying to upload it since morning, and
was not done by 8pm. The work should have been finished 5 days ago, so it
is true that it's a self-created problem.

While UG has fabulous creative people, they might be losing out because
they don't know where to access good bandwidth. Of course, everyone loses
out when we all have to settle for substandard work.
