Youtube - on it's death bed.

[C4]

This website logo that everyone seems to love would no longer be there after 2010 if this continues. YouTube is currently not profitable, with its revenues being noted as "immaterial" by Google in a regulatory filing. Its bandwidth costs are estimated at approximately $1 million a day. It is estimated that in 2007, YouTube consumed as much bandwidth as the entire internet did in 2000. More than 150 million videos were being watched every day, and 2.5 billion videos were watched in June 2006. 50,000 videos were being added per day in May 2006, and this increased to 65,000 by July. In January 2008 alone, nearly 79 million users watched over 3 billion videos on YouTube. Google Inc. might as well shut down Youtube if it doesn't get profitable by June 2010 due to the high band-width costs and usage. :wounded2:

Stop uploading bullshit on Youtube, fat smurfs!

Dailymotion has nothing except pornographic films and illegal PPV Uploads of Wrestling which get deleted in a day or two. Plus, it isn't that popular and there are no Official WWE or TNA channels over there.

Sapo > Dailymotion. if you dont know what sapo is it is a portugese site i think and they never remove any wrestling media. Dailymotion use to be good but has gone down hill since they started removing loads of videos.

Even if youtube was to close people would just come up with a replacement and that would probably be megavideo, plus with mega video you can upload longer videos

Dailymotion is pretty fucked up, believe me :yeahright: And that sapo thing you're talking about give me the link of this website.

They would surely come up with a replacement but nothing can be bigger or equal to Youtube which is the best of all time.

I uploaded 3 or 4 videos that I had put together but I hate the ones that are really pointless and are a waste of bandwidth. Post quality or post nothing, it's really that simple. Some of the shit on YouTube is not needed and I enjoy watching music videos on YouTube and The Angry Nintendo Nerd. I'd hate to see it shut down.

 

[the dark knight]

i think they should do it rapidshare style....if your video doesn't get viewed at least 10 times a week, it gets deleted.

 

[gashface]

Man, I hope not. I really rely on youtube.

 

[Enigma22]

arent views good lol? why would u close down a site because it is to popular?

 

[LadyHotrod]

^ It's about money. Someone has to pay to keep the site going and buy the bandwidth and so on.

Man, I hope not. I really rely on youtube.

how? do you upload videos? and if you do, how does that really make your life better? lol

more views=more bandwidth=more money to pay
