See my sig if you need a better host.
Thanks for the suggestion, but the reason I was looking into separate video hosting was to cut down on bandwidth and because I'm on a shared server. Also, I've tried hosting them on my own but the buffering time was ridiculous. However, this may have been do to the file I was using since it was a WMV.

In all honesty, video on webpages is a foreign subject to me. I've heard FLV is the way to go, but my server wont allow streaming FLVs unless I use VPS or rent a dedicated server. If there Is any other alternatives, I'd appreciate any input!
