Vimeo has worked for me, sometimes upload times take a long time w/o a Pro
account. I usually find Vimeo to pretty liberal and willing to turn a
"blind-eye" to somewhat iffy content (artist sympathetic)

Or you could also use blip.tv they seems pretty artists sympathetic, but I'm
not so sure how their compression fairs (although I've seen nicely
compressed thing using their service). You could just embed them as
quicktime and host them on a server somewhere. If you want some advise on
hosting/quicktime I can help out.
