There's that French alternative to youtube, but I can't think of the name. Some of the other FReepers will know.

I think this would be an excellent time to start an independent, alternative video site.

All this is is the record companies trying recoup their former stature. I am all for musicians getting their cut. But spotify ect give them less than the old companies by orders of magnitude.

Until the record co’s learn that their time has passed, meaning when the last of them closes its doors, we will keep seeing the scheme of the month monopolize musicians and fans income.

But Russia and china have servers too. And they are about to become very popular.

So, banner ads and starting each video with a commercial isn’t working out for Youtube?

I wonder what the next big site will be?
The RIAA minions have managed to shut down indie outlets since the nineties. Always the indie artists develope a new avenue to the public.

Same old same old, and in the end the loser will be YouTube.
Looking for new musicians (lately some excellent Asian and Russian jazz artists - look up Morikawa Natsuki) is most of what I do regarding YouTube.

I hear YouTube, Twitter and Facebook are going to announce the largest merger in history.

It will be called YouTwitFace.com.

“you should probably download them now.”

LOL, I most probably did. All the web browsers have an app or extension to download videos and mp3’s off the web. I know most of the metal vids I like on YT are indies.

YouTube ain’t the only game out there any more.

I’ll be spending the weekend, recuperating from the
V.A., downloading a boatload of music videos, after
three weeks worth of ‘updates’, to catch up.

Didn’t they try to take down music videos in the YouTube space before(Like several years ago)? I remember it being harder to find music videos at the time. But people kept putting them back up and finding ways around their automatic detection.
I guess they are powerful enough to alienate their viewer base...
