the future of video

where google is taking youtube -  "swinging for the fences" or "just sitting around and watching things happen" ?

what an amazing contrast between the cultures of "scarcity" vs "abundance"

"scarcity" = $$ because it's rare, pay $$ for it (copyrighted material)

"abundance" = give away the content because everything else around it (including advertising and related services) will generate the revenue.
