Then those companies should use a paid video CDN service to host their content?

Which now makes me wonder if YouTube will launch a paid hosting offering sometime in the future that guarantees ad-free viewing.



Or they could use Vimeo but the issue is people search for stuff on YouTube.

For example, when I'm interested in a product (synths, videogames, etc) I go directly to YouTube to watch demos and reviews. If it's not there I won't see it.


You would think they would have had time to develop such a program before launching this change.


Imagine the outcry if they launched paid hosting at the same time as they introduced this new change?
