While I understand that the YouTube integration is really nice, rolling your own encoding and video-serving is not out of the question. There are a number of libraries for some popular languages that will help automate the process (with ffmpeg) and cover up the messy details if you need. The cheap FLVplayer is easily skinned to match your site, etc. And Amazon's S3 storage is almost free.
- gscott 17y agoPossibly some sort of Yahoo integration instead, not as popular but good enough.
- PanMan 17y agoWhile S3 storage is fairly cheap, bandwidth still isn't. I did some math for a video clip I'm working on. And 1.000.000 views (a lot, but not unfeasible for a popular music vid. Some rank 5+ million) still costs a few thousand $... Hard to make that back on ads.
