Hard time understanding the basis of the vube.com video site
I have been seeing this on popups on various sites (popunders rather)
You Can't embed the videos. No ads exist on the site for revenue. They give away money for most visited videos. So I dont know if the person buying the popunders is someone trying to win the top video view to get the price, or the actual site getting exposure. Not sure if its some sort of startup or not. ![]()

So, it sounds like they will be eventually giving producers a way to charge people to see the videos and that is where the money part would be at. ETSY for independent video producers. .

Eh. You know how it is in the world of startups. Take as much VC money as they can to cover their personal salary while holding off site monetization attempts as long as possible. Because as soon as they try to monetize and it isn't working, heads start rolling.

ALl you can do is upload your video, no choice for thumbs or tags or anything really.

The Streamate owners are behind vube.com
Amazing how much traffic these guys buy. What's the business model? Global Rank 65 |

They are putting millions and millions of dollars in that project.
Probably a lot of the money they make with Streamate is being put into Vube.com But why? IPO? |

The whole concept is a major FAIL.
Can't even pronounce the stupid name. "Voob"? Bleh.

I checked who owned Vubeoligy Inc., the company behind vube.com, and I recognized the names
http://www.bizapedia.com/nv/VUBEOLOGY-INC.html "The company has 3 principals on record. The principals are Benjamin Scott Perkins, Ross D Perkins, and Shawn Boday" Ross Perkins and Shawn Boday were Flying Crocodile Inc (SexTracker, etc). and later ICF Technology (+ Accretive Technology Group) which is Streamate http://www.sos.wa.gov/corps/search_d...?ubi=603276453 |

Its cool idea with all the covers of songs and contests.
Def has not reached its potential yet. Think about how big american idol and all that crap is. Site could do with a host or a tv/webshow to get some order to the chaos. Maybe hold some real contests like $100k a month prize or something Records deals etc |

There are dollar amounts beside many of the videos - that's money the video has earned by number of plays?

The amounts listed is the prize money the videos have earned. Vube pays $10,000s a month in prize money for the top ranked videos. Maybe the business model is that they hope to discover some people that will end up becoming big stars and they might have something in their terms that they will own the rights and get a cut or something. |

Fuck yeah, thanks for this thread.
Plus the auto-sound/video playing on popunders is annoying.
