For the record, Vimeo is now supporting HD vids so that's a huge plus in my book. I came across this old post when searching for vimeo vs youtube via google… which I’m still undecided on.

Otherwise, I agree with the points JL! made. Oh, and Lexi is adorable.

Unfortunately, that's not all that counts. If you're going for a big audience, hoping millions will see your videos (or even thousands), then YouTube wins hands down. If you don't care how many see them, Vimeo may win, except that it would be easier for Vimeo to just up and disappear one day than it would be for YouTube, and if it disappeared, so would your videos. Overall, I think it's YouTube FTW. I think Vimeo is slightly higher quality and has better design overall, like you said. Unfortunately, that’s not all that counts.
