Any good video sharing websites?

I want to share to videos online with friends/family, but I don't want these videos to be in the public domain.

Can anyone recommend any good sites? (which are free!)

I registered with the obvious candidate, youtube, and after spending ages uploading some videos, found some issues. I made the videos private, and sent the links to some people, but found that they need to register to be able to view them - far from ideal!

I simply want a site I can upload a video to, make it private, and then send the link to people I want to see it. Ideally I'd like as good viewing quality as youtube, but as my vids were taken from a camcorder, I'd need to be able to upload large file sizes. Youtube has a 2GB upload limit, which is ideal. Other websites I've come across have a 100MB upload limit, which is pretty useless for me.

Hope someone can help!

    Think about that 2GB herman.

    My upload speed is approx 65KB/s (on a good day).
    Do the math, that's around 8 hours for 2GB.

    I'm not saying a want to upload a 2GB, just that a limit that is substantially more than just 100MB is needed as most of the videos are larger than that.
