The Egg Cracks

By WellcomeMat on Apr 4, 2008 in WellcomeMat

Here is the latest in our ongoing series called “The End of User Generated Video.” Video Egg is about to join Brightcove, and ManiaTV, disallowing user-generated video uploads. While BlipTV has not yet joined the No UGC party, they have stopped allowing real estate videos on their site.

Here are the highlights from Video Egg’s email blast:

“…Yes, as of May 31, 2008, we are discontinuing our consumer video uploading, hosting and sharing service at my.videoegg.com. No, we are NOT going out of business! We are simply refocusing our business away from our consumer video service and concentrating on our advertising network and technologies.”

“…If you would like to create an account with another partner who can host and serve your videos, please consider sites such as Vimeo, YouTube, Blip.tv, Ooyala, Userplane, Veoh or Kickapps.”

Plan to see this trend continue…we definitely do. And, to be sure, know that WellcomeMat does not have any plans to stop allowing user-generated video. Our game is marketing places…and any video is better than none.
