But I think that the rights and the walls that go up around contributed video are going to be largely determined by the functionality offered by the community site. If there's no download button, for example, posting a video to another community without the publisher's consent will be nontrivial. I think that one of the most interesting things about the evolution of YouTube is that they have never allowed for the viral distribution of video, but rather always supported viral marketing through embed links, comments, favorites, and so on. The community is not there to collaborate or create at YouTube. You literally cannot edit or work together on anything there. So what happened to the whole remix meme? Where's the collaboration in online media? I think Chris D. is on to something interesting.

It discusses the blurring boundaries between amateurs and professionals: Recent events are proving that top contributors to social media sites need recognition and approval, if not payment, in order to continue doing the hard work required to make a social site vibrant. Mike Arrington has called Calacanis’s move to hire top users away from other sites by offering to pay them a huge red flag for Netscape, but I disagree with Mike and think current developments in spaces like social news but especially video sharing indicate that rewarding top users may be a solid strategy.
