Is there really a good alternative to Youtube? I checked out Vimeo briefly but it seems like everyone posts videos but nobody watches them, and there doesn't seem to be one iota of community.
my alternative is just buying the music and not worrying about youtube. After putting all the music that I have and like together, even off disks I havent played in a decade or so, I realized I just about everything I need that I might want to watch on youtube right here (Yeah videos too. Prior to discovering youtube, I had a dvd player in the dash of my old MBZ and two head rest screens so videos were a must. Many I just bought and or ordered from the record company themselves way back. Others found on mix tapes and dvds that have collections of music videos. Liek the ones that they used to at least distribute at clubs).
For games, I just play them myself and figure it out. Usually I figure it out in less time than it takes to fidn the video on youtube, go through a dozen of so rick rolls, find one that actualluy in good enough quality to see, all the ads, and stuff. Realized I actually saved time doing it myself.
And since most of the music I liked to listen too have been taken down by their respective record companies or is obscure and no one posted it, I either just buy it or buy it.
