Your right Benoit
They take up alot of space plus the loading time
is real long if you go past a few mins recording the video
also some servers won't let you use the new
format that windows xp use's with its new movie maker
including geocities.
They will let you use avi but if your not paying
for your website they will shut your page down
if your page gets more than a few surfers playing
your videos.
