Mobile video sharing could be bigger than YouTube?

The is a very interesting post by Carlo Longino at MobHappy with the suggestion that operators could pool together to create a mobile version of YouTube which would maximise potential users and avoid the situation were individual operators create individual offerings thus watering down the market. This is a very intriguing suggestion as it makes quite a bit of sense as YouTube doesn’t cater for the mobile users and as Carlo points out
“these services, on their own, aren’t going to do much as competitive advantages — that is, the number of users that decide from which operator to buy service because of them, is going to be very, very low”
For instance, while I am intrigued by the SeeMeTV on 3 it wouldn’t be a major reason for taking up a subscription.
Overall this idea got me pondering in that while operators obvioulsy collaborate to an extent on standardisation issues or roaming issues I couldn’t think of service type example such as this would represent.
