Thanks for the reply.

At the point, he is very early in the process.

Essentially, what he wants is a site that runs like a basic tube/video site for users/visitors and has a backend that allows people to upload their videos and gives them tools to modify them etc. He also wants people to be able to control which ads are shown before or alongside their videos. He also wants a robust advertising system built into it so he can add ads before or after videos and on the site and control what ads are shown where.

In essence, it is basically YouTube, but he wants to own the software 100% and not have any licensing issues he might run into buying something that exists and modifying it.
