hopefully NS video will be as good as brightcove, or close to it eventually. But that sucks for us for now.

with the major quality reduction of youtube, I'd say compressing ur 100 mb video down to 5 for ns is probably gunna give ya better quality then youtube... there's other sites out there though right? you can post on break.com right?

you still can upload to brightcove, but the main problem, is that buisnesses that run channels based off of brightcove players, they make money everytime the video is played on there video player and an add is played. the problem was, in order for these videos to be posted within there own players, they were also added to brightcove tv, and when people could watch the videos on brightcove.tv the individual channels were not making money.

still sucks though. If you however are a media company or produce a series of edits etc, i would suggest a studio account which are free and can still upload videos from now on.
