I feel that vid.me didn't do enough to differentiate themselves from YouTube and so they were never going to catch up YouTube's "first to market" advantage. Shame because a bit of competition would be good right now.
I predict Amazon has big plans for a video platform. They have the infrastructure (AWS) and a lot of user data to be able to make it work. Also - They're currently looking for a second headquarters (outside of the one in Seattle) so they have something brewing - YouTube has been making lots of mistakes over the last 18 months and are beginning to understand the challenges of running a large video platform. If anyone can capitalize on YouTube's woes, I believe it's Amazon.
