Re: hosting digital media

I do not believe that current out-of-the-box versions of Zen Cart can provide for downloads that are not provided on your site. Not to say it can't be done because you can have someone create code that could do it.

Ditto Rob - If these are not on your site:

First do you have permission to use their bandwidth?
Are they on a server where you have some control?

Re: hosting digital media

Im interested, I own all my servers and have permissions do do what ever, I wanted a central location to house the downloads and be available to the different stores I own, yes I have more than one store, they are themed differently with a niche to each type respectively..
