Dvorak Adores YouTube

prostoalex writes "MarketWatch columnist John C. Dvorak tells the public to stop fretting about YouTube's business model and just start enjoying the functionality: "Since I like to run videos on my blog this turns out to be a great way to both transcode and save bandwidth since YouTube picks up the tab on the video stream. Would I pay for this service, yes. I have seriously looked at the alternatives to YouTube. With no exceptions they are all flawed.""

    Beyond that if you refuse to use flash you can't really whine about inability to access content.


    Replace "flash" with "Microsoft Word" and I think you'll understand some people's sentiments... having done some Flash work, there are some benifits to it, but as with any proprietary technology, some downsides as well, especially when things become entirely dependent on it.
