Online video host, Brightcove, has decided to no longer let users submit videos. Brightcove is shutting down the submission of videos on Brightcove.tv today. From now on Brightcove will host only professional videos.

We actually have never viewed Brightcove as a place for internet users to host videos, but mainly for businesses. We think this is a good choice for Brightcove. This will help them focus on partnerships with companies. Brightcove really did not have a chance at hosting users videos, mostly due to YouTube.
