I checked the RSS feed on one of the producer pages.
No enclosures there for aggregators to pick up.

 Hi Yahoo Vlogging Group, we were unofficially introduced to you a week
 and a half ago when we were thrown into a fantastic rights that really
 got the wheels turning about new video distribution models, and rights
 issues surrounding that.

 However, that introduction to this group allowed us to receive very
 frank and valuable feedback which we have taken very seriously. We
 have focused much of our efforts thinking about this over the past two
 weeks.

 So we'd like to officially introduce ourselves as YouAre.TV. We
 launched in beta January 7th 2006. We think the online video space
 will be very large, and we are focusing our efforts on what is
 currently a very underserved portion of that space, independent people
 who have quality video that they actually care about. They care about
 how it is presented, how it is distributed, and they also care about
 the communities they create around their video. If you look at our
 site and how content is laid out, it is very unique from all other
 copycat videos sites out there.

 Based on the great feedback we have received from this group and
 others we have:
 •   Updated our terms of use to read a lot clearer. The first line reads
 You retain all ownership rights of any content you upload to the
 YouAre.TV website
 •   We have added a blog where we hope can be a sounding board for our
 users.
 •   We have added a faqs section to our site with mostly video
 conversion info (until we get flash in the site).

 Our most recent feature release has been dubbed Get your video out
 there since users are now uploading their great video to YouAre.TV we
 know you'll want to share it…Get your video out there includes:

 •   Send this video to a friend by email.
 •   RSS for top videos, keywords, tags, and your video profiles.
 •   Permalinks for videos and profiles

 We have also added the ability to leave comments on videos.

 We are excited about the community that has been growing daily in our
 two weeks of life, we look forward to continuing to give you the best
 tools to Be seen.

 You can email us personally at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Stay Tuned…

When uploading a video, the field for 'Copyright' isn't really clear... 
Is there a way I could select a license (Creative Commons, etc) the way 
blip.tv and Ourmedia do it?

Yup, enclosures would be nice... Also, I'd recommend using utf-8 over 
iso-8859-1 for serving the feeds (and all pages really.)

You might also want to add the Last-Modified and ETag headers when 
serving your RSS feeds, this will probably help your servers when you 
get a lot of aggregators subscribing to the feeds...
