DU is quickly surpassing Crooks & Liars for the go-to place for political videos.

[trumad]

I love the Crooks & Liars web site because they were one of the first sites to post videos of political interest. It was their videos more than their commentary that brought me to their site.

Well--- DU, in my mind, has now become that go-to place for the latest and greatest videos. We have hundreds of contributors posting videos and that keeps the content fresh and current.

1. it's better save for one thing

I like to download the videos for WMP and keep them at my disposal. We only do youtube here. But the collection of videos is fantastic.

9. YouTube sucks if you have anything less than fastest broadband

So, while I like the DU video feature, C&L's downloadable format wins them the :thumbsup:

11. same here

I have dial-up, so anything other than dl is a major pain.

2. Ironic

How long before this big liberal site puts the small liberal one out of business. Greed is everywhere, not just on the right.

3. How does greed

figure into that calculation?

4. ? not seeing it. . ? We ALL want EVERYONE to see this stuff...

If we at DU thought C&L was in "trouble" I expect that most of us would consider helping out...

(What kind of a DU poster's mind goes straight to the "bucks"?)

6. The kind who

keeps it in his pocket :D

5. Stupid post

7. This Big Liberal Site

Was here before many if not most of the smaller ones. If fact, many of the smaller ones have been coming here and using DU to market their sites.

Raw Story, Brad Blog, Crooks & Liars ... those are just a few sites that use DU for free advertising to get the message out about their own sites.

8. Bandwidth greed?

what's it trading for against the dollar?

10. Nah... C&L's quicktime and windows media downloads

are nearly always higher quality.. I will always go over there to look for a video first before settling for youtube... It is great that DU provides a pointer for youtube videos, but we do so for C&L too.
