Nice idea. I would pay a reasonable fee for something like this, given a few changes: - Having it based on YouTube / Vimeo, not FB - I wouldn't care about my friend's feeds to be honest, but I would love to be able to watch channels created by people with similar interests, on a specific topic and so on...
1) Upon login, my facebook username (which has a '.' in it) was 'invalid'. Just strip out any bad characters and use that for the login. Even better -- why do you need a username when you're logging in with facebook??
2) "Your videos are being fetched. Please check back in a couple minutes". You have to have this display a 'loading' animation and go fetch the videos with AJAX. You'll lose TONS of people with this.
It's a cool project, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a start-up. How will you monetize while depending on FB? Is this currently a pain-point for people, to the point that they would pay money for it?

1) Your username is needed to create your channel, airfeed.me/username
2) Yes, this was mentioned on couple of comments. We will be fixing this on the next update.
Ant, congrats on the project. I believe it is a great tool at this moment it is very far from being a startup or business. We, Turkish developers, are good at developing such tools but converting them to profitable products. Don't do any categorization/tagging feature. It won't get you 20x users. It won't make you win an award from ACM or so. Focus on the idea/problem and make really sure that you are solving an actu…
We would like to transform into a video collection site. So the next update will include the ability to add videos to your collection by pasting their youtube/vimeo/dailymotion link.
Like I said, profitability is a not as-important at the moment before we create something that is actually being used by many people.
