Unless these videos are extremely short, that would involve adding a
second content delivery model to DSpace.  Users aren't going to be
satisfied to sit and wait while their browsers download 5GB of video
content before starting to play it.

I've experimented with storing a simple SMIL document as the item's
primary bitstream, and having that point to a streaming server which
supplies the actual video.  The problem I ran into is that SMIL
support in popular browsers was poor to nonexistent at that time.  I
haven't retested for a while, so the situation may have improved.

Typically when a software vendor says that a product is "intuitive" he
means the exact opposite.
