- The legalities depend on where you are based, what TLD your domain is (.com is considered a US asset),etc. Even most offshore hosts will ask you to remove content, no one is going to bother with a court battle over your $200-300/month server. It's best to just follow DMCA.

Yep, I really don't like the idea of embedding random videos and leaking link juice all over.
Plus it doesn't seem like a serious, long-term approach.
A lot of people seem to be against a new tube.

I understand why, there are literally thousands of crappy sites.
I actually want to do something user-friendly, with a unique design., not overloaded with ads, etc., a multi-niche site.
My main concern remains with content and it's quantity. Seems like the biggest challenge.
