 YouTube is great these days. If you take the time to become a verified
subscriber all the world will be revealed to you. They have many tools and
they re-written the whole thing, and it’s pretty good. It’s also free. You
can make playlists and decide what happens at the end, and add links and
other text.

After you earn your stars and are good for a while they will give you these
privileges.

And as far as video streaming, they actually appear to be the best. They
are so equipped with their mirror servers all over the world.

I used to shun YouTube for several years because of their lower quality at
the time but now they’ve come up to do not only great serving but live
streaming as well.

You can create extra users. And it has a better social features.

  Vimeo streaming is still excellent but I like the extended distribution
that YouTube has.  And I have to pay over $100 a year to be able to upload
the quality I want quickly.
