I think the lesson for other media companies is to get all their content into a single online "property" or are their anti-trust issues involved?

There's a very low bar for anyone in the world to watch YouTube with a handheld device and an internet connection. What am I missing?

I suppose it's their ad program and fast-acting content ID system that juice it - that'd be the hard part to get right.

X has a lot of video content too - why not present it better in a video-focused version? Get rid of the "X" branding though - it's not a rating. Maybe "Y"?

Micropayments should be tied into all compensation now. x402 as well for monetization.

Perhaps if Soundcloud did video it'd be a challenger and there's one area Soundcloud lacks but should be able to capitalize on - music videos as uploaded by artists themselves.
