The problem with embedded video on Facebook is that it can be shared ONLY on Facebook, as far as I can see. I like to share video I find on Facebook accounts that I follow to my Twitter account, and sometimes to Pinterest. That can't be done (again, as far as I can tell) with an embedded video - there's no unique url. Eventually, users who want their content shared will realise this, and return to uploading their videos to youtube and Vimeo.

The internet is filled with uncountable number of videos, I wonder how people are able to select the ones to they want to listen to. Will embedding videos on Facebook draw more customers to your website?

Has anyone actually got the embed video feature to work on a website? I can't seem to embed it myself?
