A content hosting environment enables content that is to be uploaded to a social network to be distributed and transcoded in an automated and adaptive manner to facilitate or improve content hosting. Content items may be distributed to different locations, such as social devices in a social network, a cloud computing system, or the like, based upon real or projected demand for the content item, user selections, content item properties, or the like. Instances of content items can be transcoded to different formats based upon real or projected demand for the content item, user selections, content item properties, or the like. Distributions and transcodings of instances of content items can be changed due to changed demand, elapse of a period of time, or the like.
