having my own videoblog with a feed?
Other than the hard/soft discussion (softcore hardvlog anyone?), it
sounds like there is one BIG difference:
<<from the press release>>"Veoh utilizes a proprietary, secure P2P
network that helps prevent
piracy of content, and makes sure all video content is properly
categorized, of TV-grade quality and always available."
Basically, I'm guessing they are likely counting on some sort of
torrenting technology to mitigate the bandwidth costs. My guess
would be that they would supply some bandwidth to start in order to
seed the network but are likely looking for the network to support
itself in terms of bandwidth. If this is right, and they succeed, it
would be a beautiful thing (very fast downloads, low overhead, etc).
I guess we'll get to see as things unfold.
BTW I was fine with the press release.
Cheers,

(don't go there - I haven't added content in almost a month,
although I've been shooting lots).
P.S. On the disclosure note, I work for a company (PiXPO) that has
some revolutionary P2P photo sharing technology. We've basically
been a startup R&D company for about 2 years and are now getting
focussed on the business side (which is what I work on). We're on
the verge of launching P2P personal video sharing/streaming.
In terms of the vlogosphere, this would not be a "core" app, but I
think one that will grow to be an additional tool. In the meantime,
it will be the only easy (dead easy) way for the millions of digicam
owners to share vid with friends and family.
The only very sad note is that we have nothing for the mac yet :-(
I'm hoping that will be taken care of by early next year - we'll see
how it goes.
