How to architect a video site, from a performance point of view

Question

Hi guys,

I want to build a high traffic video site, which has many videos and visitors, using ASP.NET. But I have no experience of high traffic sites and video sites.

Anyone can give me some stuff to read or some keywords for me to google? In the performance point of view.

Many thanks :)

UPDATE: I said our site is similar to Youtube, but that just meant that the site structure would be similar to Youtube. We won't have that high traffic. So I delete that sentence, sorry for confusing you :)
