I would guess it is the hassle, expense, and poor cost/benefit ratio...

People want places like youtube to guess which content is authorized and which 
is not and proactively police postings. (Could be impossible or close to 
impossible at this point, certainly so expensive for these free hosters that 
the services they offer to us will likely go away...)

This is a difficult problem. At least, I see it as difficult. If anyone has 
any good, easy solutions, I would love to hear them.
