Also, make sure you inform your friend that FLVs can be pulled off of his page anyway. Not to mention, with screen capture programs, all you have to do is press record on the program and press play on the video. So... He might want to make sure he posts his videos with passwords and only gives those passwords to people that he wants to view the videos.

[videoblogging] Re: Question about hosting your own video's
yea, I was going to mention that as well...he's still a bit new to the whole idea of vlogging, in fact I doubt he thinks that is what he is doing... ;) But I wanted to be able to give him options then ease into all the benifits that are gained..

Some sites like Vimeo and Viddler give you the option to not allow the original video files to be downloaded. And both sites give you privacy tools such as passwords and secret url's. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Heath [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a friend who wants to put video of his kids up on his site using a flash player, but he wants to host the video's locally on his own site.
