Good video hosting site

[strjms72]

Hi, i was just looking for a site that's decent in hosting a video file. I searched google, and I tried photobucket, it takes forever to upload it (it's a 30-40 MB file) and they complicate things too much (with the albums and all - i don't want to show the baby to my grandparents); i tried tinypic but after i uploaded the file, the streaming was a mess, the sound was interrupted or something throughout the video; imageshack.us doesn't seem to support video, although they have the option. i tried another 2-3 sitest that appeared in the first page of google search but i just got tired of all of them asking for my email address and the finding out that they doesn't support this or that.
The file is in .avi format if that matters.
Thanks

Youtube isn't good enough? Have a look at this one:

Other than that, if you want professional quality you'll need to look for paid hosting.

Youtube or google video seems the obvious free solution. You can upload video up to 1GB file size but the basic account limits running time to something like 10 minutes

I second vimeo, you can up HD video on there too
