It would be actually stupid to store the movie in a database. Just store the path to the movie in the database and then link the movie to the application.
Like a table ID, MovieName, MoviePath, Genre
Use as MoviePath the absolute Path to the movie file

What are you using for a data base.
I've done them in Alpha 4, Alpha 5 and VB.

PHP and MySQL are both free and fairly easy to learn, not to mention very powerful and a lot of hosting companies provide php hosting for very reasonable prices. GoDaddy.com is a good php host. They only charge $4 a month for lots of MySQL databases.
