Hi, how's it going?
Depending on the length of the movie you could always try uploading it to Youtube (in various parts even), or if you want to place the file so it's an accessable download to your friends, you can use a site such as Megaupload.com
I'm not sure of the limits they have on file sizes as I haven't used the site in years. They used to be pretty generous with what you were able to upload though.

Well as far as I can recall Megaupload.com will alow you to put a password on the download link to a file, so the only one's who can access the data are whoever you give the information to.

Well with Megaupload, your friends would be downloading the actual file.
It's not like Youtube where they can view it online or anything like that. You upload the file as it exists on your computer and whoever downloads it has to save that exact file to their hard drive. And then they'll be able to watch it with Windows Media Player or whatever movie programs they may have.
So the quality of sound and picture is identical to however it is for you.

Oh, it depends really how big the bulk is with your movies. They'd only allow big ones if both of you are actually online through P2Ps (person to person). But if they're rather short, then you can just upload them online through photo/video mediums like photobucket where you could send your friend the link and they could view. But they do limit the size though.

thank u laydee...
but what about my privacy if i upload my video...
well my movie content is as big as 1.4gb. and p2p is good only if we both have our own computer (for storing in hard disc). what if we use cyber cafe for internet, in that case i want something like an email attachment stuff. so that my friend can store the video in the mail and can be asscessed from anywhere.
