you should use a CDN for that. if you only have one size it will be too bad for some users and too long to wait for others.
just do the maths and imagine you have 1000 video users at the same time and you want to give them at least a downloadspeed of 5 Mbits. with this a user could download theoretically around 600 kB data in one second (if there is no bottleneck somewhere)
on a CDN you hold the videos is different qualities and you deliver this quality wich is the best for this user.
