    Youtube vs Vimeo

    What are the pros and cons of youtube and vimeo? Which is better for HD video? Is vimeo more lax about having music in your vids?

    Share your thoughts/experiences. I just have limited experience with youtube and was wondering if vimeo is better

    Yes Vimeo is better for HD IMO, and yes they're more lax about music in your videos. But, the free account you can sign up for is limited in the amount of uploads per week, and they nag you about upgrading here and there.

    Overall, I like Vimeo a lot and do actually prefer it to YouTube from a video editor's standpoint, although YouTube has the whole free thing going for it and now it supports 1080p too...

    Vimeo loads slower though, as far as viewing goes...

    LOL I actually notice the opposite, especially when watching HD content...

    Vimeo uses a more glitchy flash client.. iv had a harder time getting it to load on more computers than youtube. youtube just tends to load easier.

    that being said, i have almost no uploading experience with either..
