Carefully examine YouTube's service agreement. If you upload to YouTube 
you may be giving away rights that you intend to keep. Also, YouTube(now 
, with the Google buyout, aka "GooTube") may use your material in ways 
you do not agree with. blip.tv has a much better service agreement if 
you want to keep your rights. Other aspects of blip.tv like opt-in-only 
advertising, and 50/50 share of ad revinue seem to be better as well.
