YouTube is the only game in town for user created videos on the web. What percentage of user created videos do you think YouTube streams? I wouldn't be surprised its in the 80%s or higher.

Which in itself is just fine. But now they're using their monopoly position here to bolster another unrelated product. Once you start doing that you're doing an IE/Windows abuse.

Good news for you:

http://vimeo.com/upload/video

http://blip.tv/dashboard/upload

You have choice!

edit: and I love how blip.tv gets the podcast RSS thing.

I have started suggesting that everyone use Vimeo. I will stay away from YouTube as best I can.

Blip.tv? The site doesn't look so hot.

How would I find those if you didn't link them? Doesn't seem obvious how to find these "channels".

I think they are all linked in the corresponding project, event or community sites.

You can also search (this is one I never did before):

http://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+site%3Ablip.tv

which led me to:

http://blip.tv/file/399103 and to its channel.

BTW, there is an http://oscon.blip.tv that promises to consume even more of my free time.

It's very good. PyCon and Clojure have lots of videos there. I am right now listening to a PyCon 2011 presentation from it.

And they got the podcast thing right.
