I'm not sure why these aggregators don't provide a link - the
Permalink is provided in the RSS feed. Mefeedia does this everywhere
there is a reference to your video. It is easy.

Aha, interesting, I hadnt noticed the permalink issue.
Their publishers page still says We build a page for each producer's

I think that is an interesting statement.
My 'original' website links to my RSS feed, and links to
I actually ended up stopping by this site a few days ago.
I think it was mentioned in some article i read.
Funny thing is, they have the exact same tagline as one of the sites I
worked on.
But yeah, they are giving you attribution but they are definately re-hosting
a newly transcoded flv file:
They seem to be giving attribution and providing direct download links
to the original file ... downloads will hit blip for stats and links
will hit feedburner and what not ... but the transcoding still bugs
me. I wonder why these sites are so determined to eat up their own
hosting/bandwidth
I think its in part because they want to assure all videos on their site are
flash in order to avoid playback issues with users... and also it provides
them with some deeper viewing stats as well.
They are using on2 flix http://on2.com/technology/flix-features/
They are using their bandwidth.
Long live blip.tv. I agree, their strategy of offering the flv
permalink sets them apart in a world of vieo hosting options. And
with that single link, we videobloggers have a whole host of other fun
things we can do with our content.
(This has been an unpaid and sincerely honest endorsement.)
Then what about magnify.net? I haven't looked closely at how they
aggregate videos...can anyone enlighten me?

By reencoding footage they are on extremely rocky legal ground.
They are actively redistributing content, and so they absolutely must
adhere to peoples license. They cant try and wriggle around in the
grey area that some who only embed videos have over this issue in the
past.

i'm referring them to the vertigo aggregator best practices
