| Cuban more and more becomes...
... a real, whining loser asshole. He used to be the guy who spoke out against the loser, dying RIAA and its corruption-based legal influence and I always said finally, somebody is speaking.
But recently Cuban increasingly became the classic out-of-touch rich idiot who really thinks he knows everything better - somebody needs to tell him that the fact he was able to fool a truly moronic Yahoo! to buy his soon-to-be worthless Broadcast.com for $5B+ worth of stocks during the peak of the dotcom heydays simply means he was lucky to be in a good position at good time... |

Hit the nail on the head. Keep in mind that Cuban is responsible for HDNet. YouTube is the polar opposite of Cuban's strategy. He thinks people care about high video quality, regardless of what the actual content is. YouTube is about having popular content regardless of quality. The popularity of YouTube rubs in his face the fact that content, not quality is king. It doesn't surprise me at all that Cuban doesn't like it.
Sure, there's lots of illegal stuff going on. But that's not much different from the beginning of music sharing. The television studios need to learn from the music industry's mistakes and figure out a fair compensation mechanism to give people what they want. He is very right that the lawsuits will start the moment there's someone with deep pockets to sue.
