If I have to come to your website to watch it, then it ain't really distributing.
depends how you look at 'distributing content'. i tend to look at it from a more loose and general side. web publishing and blogging are a form of content distribution. it may not be sending the content direct to an individual (email, rss reader, p2p client, client/server app etc) but its out there and has been distributed to the web... where anyone can consume it.
music labels distribute music on CD and are offered for purchase at stores. you have to go to the store to get it. films are distributed on film and dvd etc... you have to go to a theatre or to a store to consume the content.
'distribution' doesnt strictly mean direct-to-consumer-on-demand.
and 'experience' doesnt necessarily degrade if the consumption is done via the web.
i think you may be underestimating the big picture of networked media.
it's not all about aggregation.

Now to argue my point from the other side... This may be a great
service for some people. The basic step of putting video on a website
can be solved in a number of ways. This may be a nice widget for doing
just that.
But your question was if this service had any value to videobloggers.
To that question, my answer is no. It has little if any relationship
to videoblogging other than it being a way to embed a clip on my blog
sidebar... that's about it. But as for distrbution of media, I don't
really see it there. If I have to come to your website to watch it,
then it ain't really distributing.
