As I mentioned before google video allows users to download the video (as long as it is not copyrighted), here is an
example of a video from GTR I posted a while back. On the right you can select to download it as a .mp4 file at high quality, same as I get from SOAP. Where as you can only download youtube files as .flv (flash video files). With both youtube and google video you can embed them into a web site, click the blue "Email - Blog - Myspace" button then embed HTML link and you can have a nice little 400X326 video player. I can hopefully see something like this implemented into CD Media, seeing the the videos are not hosted here and will be in the most central of locations, Chief Delphi. If we cannot make that work here, I think it is a good idea to try it on another service like SOAP.
