    My take on the "[popular brand] killer" tagline is that a killer isn't a killer until it has already killed 'something'. Until then, we might call them "prospective killers" or something like that :-)

    If there's one site likely to succeed in this area, it's TPB. And if they let people upload videos without length limitations, wow.

    Those guys simply don't care about copyright. Not good for movie networks et al, but I can definitely seeing such a site becoming ridiculously popular.

    This will be "NewTube's" real competition, so they better produce a superior product. It's more than half a decade and the music industry is finally brining a superior product over napster to the table (or at least a product that's a bit more comparable).

    I see a connection here:

    Flash video + Bittorrent

    What if the interfacee fetches the videos from a bittorrent network. That'll be har to take down.
