But wait, there's more! (That's me saying "But wait!" this time, not you.) Browsing file shares in-game is one way to find content, but it can get a little cumbersome. That's where Bungie.net comes in. When you visit the website, you'll be able to look at your file share, and everyone else's as well. Saved films and variants, of course, aren't viewable on the PC because they're just a sequence of game data, but you'll be able to pass around links, see the file descriptions, and even click a button to add it to your download queue - next time you sign in to Halo 3, the game will auto-download the files (up to 8, currently) that you selected on the website. Screenshots, though, you can view directly on Bungie.net and save off as wallpaper -- and they look *great*! Add to that features like "copy to my share" where you can import a file you like on someone else's share directly to your space (or your mule's) so you and your friends can find it in-game, file ratings, and discussions, and we think you'll find this to be an essential part of the Halo 3 online experience.}}

Template:Ratings Bungie Pro is a 12-month subscription service that can be purchased over Xbox Live for 750 Microsoft points. Bungie Pro enhances a Halo 3 player's File Share, increasing its capacity from six slots and 25MB to twenty-four slots and 250MB. It is not known whether or not the service will carry over to future Bungie games.

Background

As previously stated, a Bungie Pro subscription increases the capacity of a player's File Share. The size increase lasts until the subscription expires. Upon expiration, a player's File Share reverts to normal only if their extra slots are all unused. If a player continues to use their extra storage space after their subscription expires, then their File Share will not be reverted until they reduce it to meet the limitations of a normal Share, but the player will not be able to upload new content until their subscription is renewed or their Share is reverted.

Bungie Description

A Bungie.net news post[1] describing the service relied primarily on a description written by Roger Wolfson, "a super genius working on all manners of Database and information tracking for Bungie Studios". That description, with some unnecessary content removed, has been reproduced below.
