In reply to Scott Hartley.

The whole personal thing is an ehh statement. Most people don't care about contributing to that effort they are out for business and money. Why would I make a professional grade video to place on a site where all I get is a simple link?

When I can post it on YouTube help more people make money and get more links. The whole personal satisfaction is not major concern in fact you could say because YouTube has a much larger reach that they would have an even greater personal satisfaction from posting it there.

Again I say if they want more contributors they embed the videos from YouTube. That is the real way everyone wins.
