youtube vs. dailymotion

I have just started using dailymotion about a month ago although I registered much earlier. Initially, I didn't quite like it. Messy interface, slow upload time, long processing period and the inability to organize my files via playlist. I think the dailymotion team did revamped the site these past few weeks as I begin to notice faster download and processing time.

They implemented a progress bar, much like youtube, and although the info is usually off, especially the remaining time, the indicator is very much welcome. Processing time has sped up a great deal too, much to my relief.

I only wish they would also introduce a file organizer, much like youtube's playlist. That way, I don't have to scramble around my site to search for a certain vid or parts. Perhaps it is already in the works and I hope they'll roll it out as soon as possible.

The interface could use a facelift too. Most of the time, the scrollbar doesn't work and I can't read full channel descriptions. Members profile are also very much hidden, if you do not know where to look.

As for youtube, I am sticking with it still mainly because of viewership. It's still the grandaddy of all video sharing platform and one of the easiest to navigate. However, I am very frustuated with the upload/processing time lately. Time and again, it either stops in the middle of an upload or when it finishes at 100%, the dreaded Server Error occured. I don't understand how this site could still be so bug ridden.

If there isn't much improvement in the coming days, a big bulk of my upload will be shifted to dailymotion instead. The are no 10mins limit and I can share more KMVs with a lot less work.
