To see if that You Tube comparison was justified, let's check back in with Imeem one year later and assess how they're doing now.

The company appears to be under pressure financially - in October '08, Imeem laid off 25% of its staff.

Comments on the imeem blog post are now open, VIP subscribers will be able to get a refund.

Overall, we would have to side with imeem's users and it doesn't look like the company is handling this current affair very well.

You can store up to 100 songs, 10 videos, and an unlimited amount of photos on imeem for free.

Statistics don't tell the whole story of course, however we've also seen other evidence of problems at Imeem.

There's much still to like about Imeem - its design has improved and the list of record labels is impressive.

Update : Matt Graves, imeem's VP of marketing and communications, left a comment below.

Imeem is a social networking site that offers streaming music.

Imeem : Imeem is considered "the new social mixtape" .

Internet companies Mahalo, Imeem and AdBrite have laid off 10% to 40% of their staffs.

According to imeem, user-generated photos and videos weren't very popular on the site and cost a lot to host and stream.

It's also noteworthy that imeem isn't giving users an easy way to download their content from the site.

If we add in MySpace and Facebook, you can see the gulf between Imeem and the other two large social network players.

Users can also discover music related to their queries from Rhapsody, Pandora and Imeem.

Can Imeem turn it around?
