Stock purchase... dapat cash-in na nila agad baka bumagsak pa value ng Google at bumaba ang sale value hehe... But damn.

i dont think google will fool around with youtube content baka ma-turn off yung users at bumagsak yung site. plus, independent pa din daw ang operation ng youtube.

problema ng google ngayon are the copyright infringement of the youtube content. malamang maglalabasan na mga lawsuits ngayon under google na sila.

Best move for Google. Hindi matibag ng Google Video ang YouTube eh.

I think you can expect that, since magooperate daw independently ang YouTube from Google.

yes, but they're still the medium for a lot of copyrighted materials. i think somebody will definitely go after them.

bad move by youtube.com they were supposed to be the new 'google' IPO is much better... pero on the other hand, nawalan sila ng stress... tataas value ng stocks nila and yaman nila dahil na-acquire sila ng larger and greater company...
