When 1.3 Billion People Are Too Many
- axod 17y ago>> "Industry estimates say YouTube spends half a billion or more a year in bandwidth costs." Not again :/ http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=573281 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=573281
- abstractbill 17y agoApparently if enough people repeat the same lie enough times it becomes a well-known fact ;-)
- axod 17y agoTrue :) Worse than that though - it's gone up - It was "$360M for bandwidth in 2009", now it's "half a billion or more!". I guess that's inflation for you.
- jhancock 17y ago"Most of the people I met in Shanghai argued why Tudou was stronger, while those in Beijing argued YouKu had the edge." Wonder who the writer talked to? When I ask my local Shanghai friends which site they prefer, I get the answer YouKu more often than Tudou. I won't claim my informal poll is better or worse than the writer of this article, but I question the conclusion.
