| All you all are a bunch of tools thinking youtube had no future. If youtube had no future you can be sure google wouldn't touch them.
The embedded youtube video presents google with a HUGE opportunity in advertising. that's how they make their money now. Pretty soon they'll be selling ads for each individual video at triple the value of what they charge for search ads. Yes you can be sure that in near future each youtube video will have an ad preceding it.
I expect to see certain restrictions on videos but not much. The biggest areas of concern are sports clips. Frankly I think a lot of studios already consider youtube as a tool to advertise their shows and perhaps sell in future. |

| I have only watched a few youtube videos but I can tell you right now they are all ads.
I say this for the simple fact that these are generally real user's posting videos of stuff they want. This shows stuff in the real world not some product placement crap that had to be negotiated and paid for. People playing music they like to the videos they "created" is more of an advertisement and endorsement for a band/song then any big wig commercial. |
