So you're suggesting that instead of "hot linking" that people should re-host the video?
Because that's one of things that people here were saying was "bad". And people were slamming Veoh for doing it.
(I think the issue of bandwidth would become a non-issue if there was no cost or a negligible cost. We really need to push P2P technologies for distribution more, so that this can become a reality.)
See ya
