Online Video, as a concept was one of the most appreciated ideas from the days of its generation. Online video sharing sites, first started as an individual identity, but as of now has developed into a total community, with members floating in every direction.
Online Video as a concept shares the idea with streaming, which is actually extremely different from the act of downloading. It provides a local platform for the uploading and sharing of videos for members all over the world.
The popularity of the idea can be evaluated by the fact that sites like Yahoo Videos and YouTube are listed amongst the registered highest numbers of visitors, irrespective of their locations.
These sites are now serving as a platform for online social networking, as members are allowed to leave comments as well as rate videos contributed by the members.
Online Video are now divided into videos for clips or available music videos which again in itself has become quite a vast concept.
