complete Newb needs help with video hosting... Options

[PotysGSXR]

Hi everyone. I had a question for all you xanga masters out there. I JUST started using xanga and had a question about streaming/dling videos from xanga. I want to allow people to dl/stream videos from my xanga, but all these free hosts usually have a limit of 20mb or so. I was wondering, does that mean I can only have up to 20 mb of vids TOTAL on my xanga entries or does that mean, each video i upload can be 20mb and i can load as many videos as i want?

Part 2. If I sign up for my own website through yahoo or olm or something like that, and it's a shared server, does anyone know if I can use MY (yahoo, olm, etc.) site to host videos that will come out on my xanga entries???

Sorry for being such a new b, but I dont know jack when it comes to internet hosting and anything of that sort. Thanks so much for everyones help.

Hi. I just had a question. sites such as putfile won't allow me to directly put their videos onto my xanga entries so is there a free host that would allow me to do so? my video is on putfile.com but the url doesnt end in .wmv, .avi, etc. When I try and use this code

<embed src="URL" autostart="true" loop="-1" width="widthhere" height="HeightHere"></embed>

it doesn't work. I've pulled out my actual video link from putfile.coms source, but i dont think that's allowed. Can anyone help me with a site that offers uploaded videos that can be directly linked?

Also, I don't mind even paying for a small shared server like from olm.com or some other web hosts like that, but most do not allow streaming of videos unless I get a dedicated server which is too expensive for me. Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks.
