Between ZenCoder and the encoding services that AWS released, someone needs to expose easy video encoding to non-developers. It's easy for us to wire up these services for our needs, but Joe Marketer can't.

Here's what he see when he searches: a large amount of spammy looking sites offering downloadable software of questionable origin (and ability). Five minute trial versions. The actual download page has twelve other download buttons for affiliate links and products. It's awful.

He just wants whatever-file-type he was given to work on iPhone/iPad for this upcoming ad campaign.

Bootstrap + filepicker.io + Zencoder + Stripe.

I just launched one yesterday for a small business. I'll probably launch another today. If it takes you more than 4 hours to ship, you've probably made it too complicated and you'll never finish it.

I usually even go as far as setting up a website. Here's a coupon for a $0.99 domain name (http://www.networksolutions.com/domain-name-registration/PS-...), and here's some $1/month web hosting (http://www.lowendbox.com/).

Stupid Q: But are there any "gotchas" with a $.99 domain? Seems too good to be true.
