Google feels the least aggressive about moving into the future.

  Makes me wish that YouTube would be spunned off into it's own company.

    Anyone can make a YouTube replacement now. They just own search for video and provide a consistent interface. Hosting and delivering and playing video files is a solved problem.

      Cost of hosting a free video platform is not a solved problem. If it were we would see many many more video platforms

        What if it wasn't yesterday, but it was today? Your statement only makes sense if time was invariant.

  That's because they've near enough enveloped the future. Chrome is underrated in importance, every other mobile device is based on Android, and YouTube, after almost 20 years, is still state of the art. Thinking of things this way, Netflix is the odd one out and most likely to fail, because I reluctantly engage with products from those other brands everyday. And I suspect everyone else does too.
