Yes? Aside from YouTube shows, one of the big things YouTube brought about was the ability for anyone to post a video online, even if it was just for friends and family. Saying, "Too bad, you're not popular so you don't get to have video hosting" is a huge step backwards.
Couldn't the original poster of said video be the one to seed it if it was so important to them that it be viewable to others. Why is the onus on a company or organization to host personal videos for free? (If I'm misrepresenting your stance feel free to call me on it - but that's what I'm taking away from your comment)
I'm not saying the onus should be on a company to do it for free. I'm saying that because that happened, it was one of the things that made online video really take off.
And, not everyone has the necessary stuff to be able to seed a video like that. A very large part of the world has their phone as their primary computing device. You're not gonna be able to seed a video from a phone on a cellular connection.
