Dumb question (from a big, old, dumb, media guy)
: If I want to put up a video — in Microsoft media format — on my server, do I have to have the streaming software for you to be able to play it? If so, is there any service that provides streaming hosting?

You don’t need a streaming server to just server up a Windows Media clip, but there will be limits to how many simultaneous users can be accessing the video with decent performance. Assuming you’re not (yet) into Glenn Reynolds’ traffic numbers, just linking to the file should be fine. That’s how I’m serving this windows media clip, for instance.
