boring tecchy question.
Anyone know how they get the data to the cinemas?
I've been interested in digital cinema for yonks.

Last time around, with Episode 1 I remember reading that RAID array(s)
were freighted in to the Empire, Leicester square with the data 
pre-loaded.

I gues this time round though, as Vince surmises, DVDs are
shipped out.

Anyone know for sure? DVDs? Satellite downlinks?
Big fat IP pipes?
