Glad you're trying something new. I can't blame you. People are getting sick and tired of having everything taken from them on YouTube and the like.
I'm looking forward to vid.me's full potential in the future, but at the moment, I still wouldn't find it suitable to just replace YouTube.
People are going to need to REALLY get riled up about the issues, but they won't. Very few are holding Google/YouTube's feet to the fire, and so the problem goes on...
