stream video for dozens of users?

I run a small private bulletin board system and I have a board meeting on video that I would like to stream to my bulletin board users.

The original video is in .mov format and is 400 mb. I compressed it to 175 mb in Divx.

I would like to stream it to my users so they don't have to wait for the download.

What alternatives do I have to run it from BTV 4.8.1, keeping in mind I don't want to open my system to the entire world.

Would some other method be better.

I expect 100 users to see the video, and maybe other videos if this works well.

Re: stream video for dozens of users?

BTV really isn't a solution for something like this. It really isn't designed for it.

What about something as simple as YouTube?

Re: stream video for dozens of users?

The video is 1 and a half hours long and Youtube has a 10 minute limit.

How would this fact impact the other suggestions?
