Re: [videoblogging] Re: Advice about setting up site with downloadable video
They're a good company, excellent communication. The point (as far as I understand - I've not used it) of the files forever system is that, for a small extra fee, you can sell individuals permanent access, via a personalized key, to a file, possibly on a seperate dedicated server, that will continue even if your account should lapse - Anyone else with further experience? j At 23:52 2008-07-29, you wrote: >Thanks Joly > >Do you use dreamhost for your hosting?

Depending on what you mean by "available for download", host your files on http://blip.tv and embed the direct links on your site pages so people can download each format, mp4, Apple TV, iPod, 3gp, whatever.
