Internet video clips are killing off traditional media quickly. Even though the quality is worse and the picture very small. People would rather watch the best part of television shows on a 2″ screen, hunched in front of their computer, rather then watch whatever the major networks feed them on a 52″ plasma screen. Internet video clips have that kind of influence over people. Some news and media providers believe that tightening controls and seeking litigation will be their solution to this new phenomenon. They have forgotten that it has already been tried and doesn’t work. For example, look at Napster and what it did with mp3s. The RIAA believed that if Napster was stopped their would be no more illegal sharing of music files. In many cases certain clips have had ten times the audience online then on television. Shows like the Daily Show is a perfect example of this. YouTube has recently removed all of their video clips but the momentum is still there.

Majority of video sites or music video sites are primarily contributed by the users. Users can share their music videos in couple of clicks and almost instantly. However, a few of them have also been contributed by media houses like CBS and BBC. If you are an unregistered user, then you are allowed, to only watch videos on the website. In case you wish to upload videos, then in that case, you will have to be a registered member of the site.
