anyone remember that internet "movie" where google ultimately ends up taking over all of media, the internet,the world or some [censored] like that?

I will say this, recently M Cuban was out bashing anybody who would take a piece of youtube. He said that it would be "nutz" to get involved with them citing all the copyright liabilities.

[pokerspite]

It appears they're overcoming a lot of these ( liabilities that is).
Nice article.

oT,

Alas, I had zero shares/options in YouTube and no money in Sequoia (their VC investor).

[wiper]

good for the youtube guys...

[JasonK]

I'd have to agree with Cuban re: liability issues. I watch copyrighted videos on YouTube all the time and I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that the creators of those videos aren't getting paid.
