I've looked over both Vimeo and MotionBox, and have signed up for both of their free accounts. But I want to know exactly how my video is being used and who can or can-not see it before I sink any money into a membership. What I did like about the You Send It was I can also pay for a one-time use, which is more what I'd need than a monthly subscription. Still, it took a long time to send, so I need to fine-tune that before I know if it's worth it. Currently, I'm in Northern California and an associate that I work most with is in Southern California. She over-nighted a DVD to me that took one day longer than the P2P sharing test. So we're still testing the waters. She wants me to send HD footage, and I'm afraid to try that one out! Waaaaay too long to risk tying up my computer. I agree. I’ve looked over both Vimeo and MotionBox, and have signed up for both of their free accounts.

Yes, YouTube is great because you can upload a video and share it with the world, but they compress it so much that the quality looks horrible. Then there's Vimeo, where videos do look good, but they limit your storage capacity. I recently looked into Share My HD (www.sharemyhd.motionbox.com) which seems pretty good at first glance, but they too limit your storage space with a FREE account and to upgrade to an unlimited account it costs $30 per year. Yes, $30 isn't bad, but I'd prefer to not pay anything. So, I'm looking forward to the day when sharing video will be alot easier and faster, until then the hunt continues.
