As a fan of Vsauce, CGP, and several conference channels (JSConf) this looks promising. I definitely see the value in having live chat alongside the video.

But instead of YouTube videos, I think this is a better fit for watching shows like Netflix/Hulu live (not sure if they allow embedding). I regularly tune into new episodes on Hulu - this would fit perfectly.

Thanks for the feedback. We're starting with YouTube & Vimeo videos because there's an endless pool of great content to start with and embedding is built-in. Not to mention, content creators continue to benefit from ad revenue.

We'd love to add Netflix shows for live streaming in the future. We've had a lot of people suggest the same.
