Anytime something advertises itself as a product killer it's most likely nowhere near as good. Often it's just riding on the coattails of some recent problems people have been whining about.

Youtube also already has plenty of popular people making videos and oodles and oodles of cash. So this just sounds like any other video hosting site out there.
