First- 
yea  you-tube is mainstream but....  why not put stuff up  there  also?  
Yikes!   IT IS FREE!
I would still keep  your own system online also, but by using 'their'  system 
 you have exposed people to your material that may never have found  you.....

The reason I know about you guys is we are a communications museum that  
studies  communication and you are part of that.... but If I was 'Joe  
businessman' and his family I would be in using  you tube and would  not  get to see 
anything you do because you are not in my   "presented to me" videosphere!

Second-

You need  some capitalism ..... it is really not as bad when used in  
moderation as you might think.... and 
remember the WALL came down....  the other system just really does not  work 
in the long term because it is not a pure application of it nor will humans  
allow a pure application of it....  so... lets go out and make some  money... 
make some movies... and do our best everyday to make things   better overall.

I don't  want to be youtube.
youtube is the way capitalism turns free ideias into  products.
imho, indymedia do not pretend to be the most advanced cms site,  but yes 
make 
smaller voices speak.

yes, and now linux  do not run well anymore in my 486, and almost nobody 
helped 
cinelerra in  about 10 years.

they are companies that wants money, that is the way  capitalism take over 
free 
ideias into the 'system' (to make  money).
