Cheapest way to Stream UNLIMITED HD Video?

Hi guys... I'm trying to figure out, is there any service out there where I can stream and protect a video file thats lets say, 4.5gb in size? I've looked at amazon S3, but at 15 cents per gigabyte, that's 60 cents for 1 person to watch 1 video 1 time... Imagine if they go back and stream it another 10 times or something?

Streaming the video off my own server dosent seem logical, especially if a lot of people are purchasing. Even if I reduced the quality of the video down to 660mb, it'd still not be what I'd think is most ideal.


Can anyone please give a suggestion on this?

thanks

    2gb per video limit, though. $100/mth.

      Thanks. But it looks like you still have to pay for bandwidth with them.

      When people sale their video courses etc, and stream it in their membership area... I'd be amazed if everyone is paying 15 to 30 cents per gigabyte. It seems like I may just have to offer a 1 time download and reduce the size..

    I'm sure you can find someone on here with a dedicated server and negotiate something for cheap to share a little space on their server. I'd be willing to bet you'd have better luck doing that than finding any sort of independent 3rd party service. It would probably work for both of you as they can cut down their costs. It's just a thought.

    How many concurrent sessions do you need?

    The solution for 100 concurrent sessions is different from 1000 concurrent sessions.
