Hardware: ZX80; Operating System- ZX80 Basic; CPU - ZX80 @ 3.25 MHz; Memory - 1KB; Hard Drive - N/A; Storage - Cassette; Monitor: Any old CRT TV

The only way I can think of at the moment is this.

When creating your pack after you have added the images you should see the above upload Readme File. I see there is an option for a zip so maybe zip up your video for immaterial and add as a Upload New.

Thanks Duchess. I now remember seeing that on the market place. Pity there is a limitation on size to upload though .

I saw this too. A light bulb went up in my head and figured i could use this to include the source file to some of my characters so that for an added price people could have access to directly modify the source. But then when i tried it it made the file publicly available on the product listing page so much or that idea hahaha

Normally content is uploaded using the Content Uploader. This creates a content item for each file that you upload and only allows uploading of certain file types (excluding ZIP, TXT, etc).

If you content requires multiple files, I have been uploading the content as Draft and then creating a Pack for the content in the Manage My Store option (in the Marketplace).

During the Create A Pack process there is an option to attach a Read Me file. I know this supports TXT but I am not sure if it supports other file formats.

If you leave the original files as Draft and only publish the Pack then your customers will never see the individual file purchases but will get them all when they buy the Pack. Only the cost of the Pack (an not the individual file costs) will be paid by the customer.
