Hi Steve, Way back in the dim and distant past, a Bb trainer was at an early Durham meeting and said that one US institution had put arbitrary limits on to monitor usage. When one course seemed to start 'filling up' they were able to check the reason and it turned out that students were using Bb as a means of storing and sharing music files. So an arbtrary limit on quotas might be a little help to keep a check on things...

With content rapidly expanding in volume it can be easy to reach capacity in memory in a short space of time. Has anyone encountered this problem and are there any solutions short of buying more hardware to store data. Steve
