Eh, don't need YouTube that badly. I think we'll collectively figure out video distribution without em just fine.

I haven't seen anything come close to competing with youtube as a centralized video source, everything from documentaries to DIY instructional videos. Sure the idea seems simple but the problem is their success and vast repository keeps us locked in.

It is more that we, as users, have become a lot more lazy.

It was rare for one company to host most of the content. Instead, content would be distributed across different websites.

Issues like these will spur action though. I'm excited to see what comes out to compete.
