YouTube is a website for people to communicate more efficiently with video by sharing, commenting on, and viewing videos. The site was originally started as a personal video sharing service, and has rapidly grown into the leading video entertainment destination on the Internet, helping to pave the way for social networking to evolve into the many catacombs that is has indeed become, and the newest YouTube feature is setting a higher standard in video sharing.YouTube's Multi-Video Uploader allows members to upload videos that are up to 1 gigabyte in size, compared to the previous limit of 100 megabytes. But note, a video must still be no longer than 10 minutes. And of course the main purpose behind this feature: the ability to upload many videos at once. So why is YouTube doing this? It is speculated that Youtube is trying to compete with another social networking video site (Vimeo), which announced it will now support high definition videos.

I've been looking forward to this one %)
The future of TV is on-demand TV and YouTube is just the start.
I canceled my HD Cable subsciption almost a year ago and haven't missed it at all especially considering the savings I've realised =)
But hopefully Flash 9 will at least bring improved video quality to YT; if there's one big thing it lacks, that's it.

Obviously, both the YouTube and the source have to support HDTV resolutions. This is a step in the right direction.
the problem with Vimeo is that its just so difficult to find content over there... the lists are simply too difficult to navigate and the general navigation of the site is quite confusing.
I personally prefer the way that Brightcove, YouTube and (shameless plug) Operator11 do it.
Why do you need one gigabyte for ten minutes of video? You can create a high quality full-length movie with one gigabyte. Is the codec their using *that* wretched?
And why or how does this allow "multi-video uploading?" That's the part that really confuses me. You allow one file of one gigabyte that's no longer than ten minutes, and that translates into multiple videos? How? Color me an ignorant newbie.

I did a bad job of explaining it.
This multi-video uploader adds the ability to upload more videos at once. Now, Every individual video has a max size of 1 gig, which means more quality! Basically, you can upload 10 one-gig videos at once to share on YouTube!
I know I would rather have access to 720p videos (or hell, even 480p would be nice) rather than to be able to upload multiple videos with ease.
