Streaming Video from Amazon S3

This newbie would be grateful for any advice about secure video streaming from Amazon S3 to a wordpress blog.

I've had a look at ezS3 and their service looks good. However, I'm concerned that if they ever went out of business my videos would simply stop playing and I'd be left scrabbling around to get a replacement delivery system up and running.

If anyone has any suggestions for alternative methods, or experience with other systems of video delivery from S3, I'd be keen to hear about it and grateful for any advice.

Thanks - Steve

Hey Steve!

Easy video player is the one I ended up using.
There are a few players on the market that offer good streamimg support for S3. However after much testing and trying, easy video player came out the best for quality, price and use-ability.

Also some nice touches from this recommended player which are perfect for making money, driving traffic, and you can even add your aweber signup or sell a product direct from within the easy video player.

I hope that helps you.
Good luck and great fortune

  I like Easy Video Player. it is very easy to set up and put videos on your website or blog. When I set it up on my site it took 5 minutes from start to finish to get a video uploaded and ready for putting on my blogs and websites.
  
  Thanks

  You can stream video from FLV files right on the
  same hosting account where you have Wordpress
  installed.
  
  Unless you go over your bandwidth limit (unlikely)
  it won't cost you an extra dime.
  
  S3, in comparison, is pretty spendy.
  
  Thanks
