| Description: | Metacafe is an online video entertainment company, somewhat like YouTube, but with a couple of key differences. Using its unique "VideoRank" system, Metacafe attempts to gauge viewer reactions to videos in order to feature those that prove most popular to its viewers. Additionally, Metacafe pays video creators for original work that has exceeded a certain threshold of both total views and Videorank score through its Producer Rewards Program. |
