    Well, they aren't making any profit now. But in a year, I heard that they will get back all their money, and more.

    they gave them that 1.6 billion in stock.. not cash... so that amount of money can increase anyways.. but yeah.. 1.6 billion ... google got a good deal, youtube is worth more than that... in ad revenues... and i hear ndc cbs and other companies are going to allow youtube to air episodes of their shows.... and they'll get advertisment money.....

    If you look on google videos now, it has some similar coding to YouTube that it didn't have before... Coincidence? I think not.

    Good thing that they kept all the animes and other videos. So now I just want to see if google will change anything on youtube.

    I use youtube alot. Since google ever bought it, I haven't seen ANYTHING load faster. It's still the same. I believe google just bought it to get a monopoly of internet video. Still, it's pretty cool that they did buy it.
