Well, you tube is famous. Fine. But quality is pathetic. Plus you need to run around searching for all the parts of an episode. All those Part 1 of 3, part 2 of 3 and so on...

You tube bit rate of videos is some 600, where as megavideo gives me video quality of 1500 bit rate (TBR, Total Bit Rate.)

Above reason hence in simple terms, implies, that youtube videos have P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C quality.

Megavideo even puts up FULL length videos. Of course, megavideo is comparitively damn new. So it may not have all the videos you tube has, but hell! I want quality. Quality videos is what I will want.

If you go somewhere else, then just click on other. And mention it here. Give a link also.

Doesn't Megavideo have a time limit?
DH told me about it. Most of the videos are .avi files from around 150 or 260 MB (approx) -> for Anime episodes and God knows how large the FULL length videos are. So, even though the quality is really good, the time limit is a HUGE let down. I'll save my vote until next time.. Can i cash it Razz

Ace, why put MegaVideo against the mighty YouTube?
I mean the next best contender is clearly MetaCafe or even Daily Motion(which, IMHO sucks). GoogleVideos doesn't count (i think) as it's YouTube with a different name (merely speculating. correct me if I'm wrong)

Well, if i were to pick one, i'd pick YouTube. Sure the quality is crap, but if you just need to watch videos online, it's the fastest there is!
And if you wanted to download videos(anime?) then that's why God gave man torrents and direct downloads(as in R and MU and yada yada).
