Video annotation service with "dynamic" threaded view where a reply appears when it was typed in?

Not seen such a service yet, seems like a nice thought. Shouldn't be too difficult to implement though (Streaming data options abound), not sure how much market will be there.
Why wouldn't people want this in every youtube-like site?
Can't say generally as I don't have data, but there would be too many live threads to follow from people that the viewer may not care about. Unless there is some level of automated moderation of live threads and possibly some linking to "friends/people I care" it could quickly become noise on the page. Just my2C. But I still think its a nice idea.
For example, as the video plays, you might lock certain replies that interest you (thus also upvoting those replies) so that you see more of those threads.
Replies would appear when they were typed in during video playback. This wouldn't just be for live video.
