Dailymotion launched two apps: a free, ad-supported version (<a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/dailymotion\/id336978041?mt=8\">iTunes link<\/a>), and a paid version for $5.99 (<a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/dailymotion-premium\/id337077713?mt=8\">iTunes link<\/a>) that does not feature any ads. The apps allow iPhone users to play videos from Dailymotion&#8217;s catalog of roughly 12 million videos. Dailymotion users can also use the apps to upload videos directly to the service.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\"><em>Sponsor<\/em><br \/><a href='http:\/\/d.ads.readwriteweb.com\/ck.php?n=a6d5ead9&amp;cb=17506' ><img src='http:\/\/d.ads.readwriteweb.com\/avw.php?zoneid=14&amp;cb=17506&amp;n=a6d5ead9' border='0' alt='' \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"dailymotion_iphone_launch.jpg\" align=\"right\" src=\"http:\/\/www.readwriteweb.com\/images\/dailymotion_iphone_launch.jpg\"  \/>Until now, the only way to access Dailymotion from the iPhone was through a mobile-optimized web interface. Given YouTube&#8217;s position as a default app on the iPhone, this put Dailymotion at a significant disadvantage.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of content, Dailymotion can&#8217;t really compete with YouTube, where users now upload <a href=\"http:\/\/www.readwriteweb.com\/archives\/chad_hurley_youtubes_revenue_is_up_-_operating_cost_down.php\">more than 24 hours of video per minute<\/a>, but the app can easily compete with those from other streaming video services. <\/p>\n<p>One feature of the app we especially like is how easy it is to browse through different categories. This is also where Dailymotion&#8217;s international focus shines through, as the app also makes it very straightforward to restrict searches to popular videos in a specific country. <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.readwriteweb.com\/archives\/europes_youtube_competitor_dailymotion_comes_to_th.php#comments-open\">Discuss<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/NSvsGMi_EYejfPqigtKPh1jXvC4\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/NSvsGMi_EYejfPqigtKPh1jXvC4\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/NSvsGMi_EYejfPqigtKPh1jXvC4\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/NSvsGMi_EYejfPqigtKPh1jXvC4\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:FFnlKYwJmN0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?d=FFnlKYwJmN0\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:Ij26kaj3iuU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?d=Ij26kaj3iuU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:C2pbw5bZMiI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?d=C2pbw5bZMiI\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?i=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?i=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?i=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?a=MYnL86_GWk8:TBxQqN_nMiM:OqabYuBsmOY\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/readwriteweb?d=OqabYuBsmOY\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/readwriteweb\/~4\/MYnL86_GWk8\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dailymotion, the Paris-based video sharing portal that is extremely popular in Europe, just launched its first set of iPhone applications.
