How well do you think this would work for videos in my iTunes? I recently began importing DVD's in and would like to watch the stuff I've bought in iTunes from a remote location. I assume it would require a really fast connection, however I'm wondering if my speedy connection here at the office would be enough.

It will works. These 2 commands will also publish your movies available in your remote iTunes. My upload DSL connection is a 800 kb/sec and it works for my mp4 movies. But I think it will depend on the codec used to compress your movies.
