There are lots of other online video services the like of YouTube. Dump it.

Youtube is hit right now. No need to dump it. Google owns it

i'm had the same problem. i just have a blog with some of my favourite music videos on it. mostly electronic and left-field stuff.

now i find that even quite obscure tracks like Wire's "Kidney Bingoes" are no longer available.

which is crazy – my blog was just a way of getting some obscure tracks out there to a wider audience
