Hm...  The Tahoe Least-Authority Filesystem might be useful for this.  The costs of storing
and serving the video files could be spread among contributors who offer to run a server.

As a demo of this, anyone who wants to share a video which is about Free Software and which is
encoded in a freedom-compatible format is welcome to upload it to the Tahoe project's "test
grid" (servers contributed by allmydata.com):
