Hosting video?

The video gallery is beginning to place too much of a load on my server, so I guess I need to off load it? I only run a small niche WordPress based site (www.esinem.com) with mostly my own content, so it's not a massive load but sometimes peaks cause an issue.

I'd like to grow the site and add e-commerce so my question is, do I just find a way to off load the video assuming this can be done seamlessly without too much hassle (and with existing users not having to log in again) or do I go for a proper grown up solution for the whole site? Should I look at a cloud or fully hosted version? My feeling is the WordPress is unlikely to be a long term solution as there are too many variables with different plugins, server side stuff etc. I'd feel more comfortable with a single butt to kick if things aren't working. Is there any good adult site software that will not be too painful to transfer my members, galleries and articles (blog posts) from?

Any advice welcome.
