...I 'heard' that there's a site called redtube that rates highly also?

I like Vimeo due to the fact that they don't mess with your soundtrack, Nothing worse then spending hours working on a video and having the soundtrack pulled or replaced by YouTube due to copyright issues. Vimeo free accounts do have limitations but the average punter will find this ok, The pro account is a reasonable price and worth the money if your going to be uploading on a regular basis. There seems to be heaps of adds on YouTube as well, May not bother some but it Pi$$es me off to no end.

My 2 cents

If you want the biggest audience, Youtube.

If you have music in your video that is going to get stung by the copyright police, Vimeo :P

Jase, get adblock plus for Google chrome, even blocks the adds that play at the start of clips

According to the sheeple who visit General Discussion, all video presented from y/tube is not real,has in some way been tampered with or something. So based on that i guess vimeo is more authentic.
