YouTube probably costs a small fortune, even in Google terms, to keep running. So I think the question is: how long can they keep running YouTube at a huge loss before shareholders grow unhappy?
- litewulf 17y agoRight. Lets return to my original Google Search analogy. Google Search costs Google a fortune to run, theres all this indexing and bandwidth and serving infrastructure thats just being wasted. Remember at the time most people were looking at Google's enterprise search boxes to be the money bringer. Sometimes what works is a sideways shift and not "monetize what you're already doing".
