Oh, an along those lines, I stumbled upon SmartFlix the other day.
They bill themselves as the largest distributor of "HowTo" videos
around.  They're based right here in Arlington, MA, and have quite a
decent collection of instructional videos.  They appear to work the
same or similar to NetFlix, but with a very narrow specialization...
