8 PERSONAL USE

• I would not use as a day-to-day video streaming service, as YouTube has more of what I
am looking for personally, as well as a much larger video library in general. I feel that
Vimeo would be useful if I had some kind of business where using video would help it
grow.
• I have watched videos on Vimeo in the past, mostly when friends have gotten married and
have had videographers upload their video to Vimeo. I believe this is a great place for
things like that because it is a smaller community than YouTube and has better quality (4K
Ultra-HD).
