Very professional website, this service is clearly needed.

BUT I feel youtube could kill them instantly by adding an "ad free"/"no click thru" plan. Maybe they will do that as part of the Google Apps suite?

Definitely something we've considered - they tried doing something similar awhile back, but ended up removing the service pretty quickly.

It just doesn't fit Google's typical monetization through advertisements.
