Yes YouTube may well be profitable as it is run now, but it may not be profitable if it was run as a utility.

- Andrex 6y agoIt shouldn't be run as a utility then. The web is open; another video site can be established by anyone. YouTube proves the model can be profitable. I'm not sure I'd treat YouTube's "monopoly" on internet video the same way as actual utilities have physical monopolies on their industries.
- danieltillett 6y agoInternet video appears to be a natural monopoly given no one can even close to competing against Google.
