Yes it's a problem! There are slews of videos that aren't discoverable because the person who uploaded the video didn't submit enough or the right content in the title, tags, description and so on. The search fails to account for content within the video, and phrases and terms the author couldn't think of or was inept for whatever reason to add. Using only one tag, a nondescript title and a description that vaguely says "My dog and I". As a result so few videos are searchable for what is otherwise a common phrase. Maybe if the users could add tags or categories themselves to a video for the community, or common terms and phrases within comments or closed captioned could be contributed to the search.

As a side note, I'm often frustrated as a designer when I search for something stylistic and hardly anything shows up, such as "Black and White", when we all know there's plenty of B&W content.

Sounds like a time saver! I continuously find myself trying to think of the most general searches and sifting through countless pages to find nothing, it's frustrating.
