Episode Two YouTube Use

Our group only uploaded our first episode on Vimeo. The upload team thought it would be more effective as the quality of videos on Vimeo is often better. However, I decided that everything else should go on YouTube for these reasons:

It is very difficult (if not impossible) to record accurate audience feedback when looking at Vimeo. For a start, when the video is watched via Facebook, it does not add to the view count on the stats on Vimeo, meaning that the number of views that can be seen on the page, is actually much less than the real number of times people have watched the episode. The same can not be said for YouTube.

YouTube has far more users. This means that uploading a video will instantly make it available for a much larger number of people to view it, getting us more views and feedback.
