A lot of those sites (like Hulu) don’t stream outside of the U.S. So, for someone who travels, like me, they’re worthless.

YouTube still rules!

One thing that I think is really unique about YouTube, as a content creator, is that I can upload videos whenever I want, about whatever I want, as consistently (or not) as I want. These other websites may provide great things for me to watch, but I doubt they provide opportunities and/or communities to support my crappy videos, which I always find on YouTube.

Thanks everyone for the comments.
And SamCreareGroup, I agree. The Vimeo player is much more visually pleasing that the YouTube Player.

YouTube is great but unfortunately when embedding onto your site, you also get the hideous looking YouTube Player and stamp.

When embedding onto your site and when aiming to achieve the professional and clean look for your videos, I recommend Vimeo.

Vimeo has a cool floating player head that blends seamlessly into your site.
The link below is of a video from the Creare Group. I think the video looks great on the white background.

Unfortunately Vimeo doesn’t have the same audience numbers as YouTube and has uploading HD limits, but it is definately worth a look if your looking for a professional look from your embedded videos.

YouTube is the biggest, but there are lots of other video sites to use. Some are specialized and would not be appropriate for all video post. Thanks for a great list – have only used a few of them, will check out the rest.

Hi “you suck”
fun to read you are so passionate about YouTube. I don’t dislike YouTube by any means, and do visit it often. The article is only meant to point out that there are other sites that offer similar services and that checking them out could bring some interesting surprises. But hey, if you’d rather just stick to one site, that is your right and choice to do so. About the other comments… I’ve lived too many years to feel I need to reply to them. But hey, thanks for taking the time to read the article anyway.
