SproutVideo founder here. We actually introduced an import tool for DailyMotion Cloud users to easily import their videos into a SproutVideo account. DailyMotion Cloud was a product of DailyMotion. DailyMotion Cloud is shutting down on April 12th. DailyMotion has offered to migrate their users to their main platform but that puts several serious restrictions on content such as:

  *  Distribution of your video catalog on Dailymotion.com
  *  Monetization of your video catalog
  *  Compliance with our content moderation rules
For many users, this is simply not a viable solution. SproutVideo offers a very comparable platform and we've already had several former DailyMotion Cloud users import their content. Companies can have very large video libraries and migrating to a new video hosting platform can be a lot of work. To that end, we created a tool that will allow former DailyMotion Cloud users automatically import their libraries into a SproutVideo account. Hopefully that clears things up a bit! http://sproutvideo.com/dailymotion
