The mass market for camera phones has increased the supply of user-generated video. Traditional methods of personal video distribution, such as making a DVD to show to friends at home, are unsuited to the low resolution and high volume of camera phone clips.

A video hosting service allows individuals to upload video
content to share, distribute or place on a website.
Users generally will upload via the hosting service's website,
mobile or desktop applications or APIs.
The type of video content uploaded can be anything from short
video clips all the way to full length movies.
The video host will then store the video on its server, and show
the individual different types of embed codes or links to allow
others to view this video.
The website, mainly used as the video hosting website, is
usually called the video sharing website.

With the increasing prevalence of technology and the Internet
in everyday life, video hosting services serve as a portal to
different forms of entertainment, whether it be comedy, shows,
games, or music.
Content may be either both user-generated or commercial
product. The entertainment industry now uses this medium to
release music and videos as well as movies and television
shows directly to the public.
Since many users do not have unlimited web space, either as
a paid service, or through an ISP offering, video hosting
services are becoming increasingly popular, especially with the
explosion in popularity of blogs, internet forums, and other
interactive pages.

In contrast, current broadband Internet connections are well
suited to serving the quality of video shot on mobile phones.
Most people do not own web servers, and this has created
demand for user-generated video content hosting

12. Streaming MediaStreaming Media
Streaming media is multimedia that is constantly received by and
presented to an end-user while being delivered by a provider.
Its verb form, "to stream", refers to the process of delivering
media in this manner; the term refers to the delivery method of
the medium rather than the medium itself.
Live streaming, which refers to content delivered live over the
Internet, requires a camera for the media, an encoder to digitize
the content, a media publisher, and a content delivery network
to distribute and deliver the content.
13. Applications and marketingApplications and marketing
Useful - and typical - applications of the "streaming" concept are,
for example, long video lectures performed "online" on the
Internet. An advantage of this presentation is that these lectures
can be very long, indeed, although they can always be
interrupted or repeated at arbitrary places.

A more recent application of the video hosting
services is in the mobile web 2.0 arena,

video can be watched on mobile devices,

video hosting services that possess equal
access and capability to desktop oriented
web services have yet to be developed. A
