The reality is that for affiliates, posting videos like that to any "tube" site isn't really going to be effective unless you can watermark it with your own url and also be able to use a link.. And you can't watermark sponsor videos.. and if you do a link, you want to have it go thru a redirect in case something happens to the sponsor... which isn't good for sponsors either.

Those tube sites are only usefull for the sponsors themselves to post their own videos and for those guys smart enough to license their own videos (you can get them as low as $15 and cut it up into multiple pieces making it more cost effective) and watermark and link to your own site.
