    1. vTap indexes hundreds of sites not just youtube
    2. Not sure at all how vuclip can get by without transcoding

    Hey gfan: who are you kidding?I tried several searches and the results were full of YouTube videos only. The report does say vuclip "convert it on the fly" which means transcoding. vtap is just a copycat of blueapple.mobi. I have been using blueapple.mobi for more than a year now. The new interface is nicer and also doesnt require a software download like vtap.

    Hey gfan:
    Duh?
    Doesn't work on my Moto Q

    You are right Clipper. I used the vtap URL "gfan" has given in his post on my Palm Treo 700w and it offered a download of the vtap application software. May be "gfan" was trying to trick you in to downloading his software. It appears he is a fan of the Patriots (Brady and all). What else do you expect :)

    Thanks for the vuclip URL. I am now able to see videos on my Palm using vuclip.

    Startups that think they can simply take videos available on web sites intended for PCs, reformat them and retransmit them to mobiles without explicit consent from rights holders will become roadkill once content owners wake up. The technology to do this format conversion is trivial and is available on the web under open source in a package called FFMPEG (http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/). If this unauthorized use of PC web content is allowed, then that would mean pirates can make DVDs from web video content put out by major studios and sell them without any permission from rights holders. That doesn't seem rational, does it?
