    I remember when all the big critics (which were popular style of video at the time) movied to Blip.TV

        WTF? Vimeo is for finding full episodes ofbshows that get deleted from youtube instantly. When did they get so pretentious?

          They always have. I think at one point you had to pay to have your stuff hosted there. It made sense if you say, made an art house movie with lots of boobies and didn't want it blocked on youtube.
