On the flip side of hyper-distribution: Mefeedia.com aggregates from almost all of these sites, and we have spent a LOT of time and resources removing "duplicates". I can't tell you how many times we see the same videos coming in from YouTube, DailyMotion, Metacafe, Veoh, etc. etc... We have also seen a dramatic increase in SPAM video polluting many different video sites through various distribution strategies. Gives me some ideas for our next "State of the Vlogosphere" - been almost a year...
For those of you interested in generating revenue from your videos - have people seen an increase in revenue with the increased distribution? The TubeMogul approach is much different than, say, Hulu, which is all about syndicating Hulu content in Hulu's Player, with Hulu's ads (Blip's distribution strategy to date seems more in line with this approach as well...). The reason I ask is that I've seen numbers vary wildly in terms of quality of revenue depending on who is controlling the content and player - for example: one creator i know receives a $30 CPM for video ads using their player (and syndicating that player to Mefeedia.com) vs. $1 CPM for ads on YouTube. I'd like to see some analysis on this.
