In my defense, I found at least 2M websites which include this term, which is why I wrote the article. The problem is, most of the top results are advertisements for those services, which I'm loathe to include as references due to WP policy on such links. I've put in a few refs now, but I'm not entirely sure that they're the most comprehensive sources. --Toussaint (talk) 00:57, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. No evidence of independent coverage required by WP:GNG. FuFoFuEd (talk) 03:48, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Video hosting service. FFmpeg hosting service doesn't satisfy GNG for a standalone article at the moment, but it is reliably verifiable as a sub-topic, because it is a service which hosting providers now compete on, for example [1] and plenty of other primary sources. And Video hosting service could use some RS sourcing from some of these sources. --Lexein (talk) 09:05, 18 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no reliable coverage to justify standalone coverage. LibStar (talk) 06:17, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, actually, that many multiple independent WP:PRIMARY sources are reliable, and good enough for a "merge," rather than deletion. Reconsider? --Lexein (talk) 19:59, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

no. LibStar (talk) 03:09, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
