the only problem I see with this is that the device (well those that can qik) can already “...upload and share videos recorded with your mobile phone’s native camera application.” It's a part of the device (assuming it has a camera and data connectivity) and apart of qik. Both are capable of storing the video locally, both take the highest video it can possibly take, both allow you to upload and share with whomever you want. So, I guess I'm not seeing the point in paying $4.99 for something you can already do for free. UNLESS... they plan on removing the already installed and functioning capabilities of the device and software included. That... would be wrong.

Valid point .. But i think this is for users who are lazy or dont know how to save the video from the phone to their PC . They prefer the hard route . phone->qik->pc instead of phone->pc . but if you stream a lot and want to save the streams to your PC, then its a good service

yes, sadly, you're right... for the lazy. Guess I didn't think using the share feature built into the device was the hard route. ;) Technology, we take it for granted, as it becomes easier and easier and easier.
