Youtube, maps, phones?
- jjeaff 8y agoYoutube - money loser Maps - money loser (but we will see after their recent huge price increases shake out) Phones - money loser. they are selling fewer phones annually than apple sells in a week.
- SquareWheel 8y agoIs Youtube really a money loser? I thought they'd turned it profitable years ago. Maps - in flux like you said. Phones are more than hardware sales. They also run an app store and license their own ecosystem.
