Partner and I have been working on a site and we have decided to go a different way. we are currently building the site on site1.com, but want to change it to a different domain, site2.com. It is on the same server, but under a different domain.

1) first is there an easy way to move this? Or do i need to start over from scratch?

2) with drupal 6 is there an easy way (module or something) to embed video?

Thanks

Normally moving the site should be very easy. If it is an add-on domain on the same account, you shouldn't need to do anything at all except moving it to the new site's directory. If it is on a different account you would need to load it in a new database. Maybe also clear the cache tables in the database.

Make sure not to use full URLs referring to your old domain inside the content. Drupal doesn't in its own URLs.

About your second question, I don't really know, take a look at the modules download section.
