I wonder how Google's aquisition will affect me? My guess is not too much. The Youtube name brand is worth too much for Google to discard. I'm guessing Youtube just continues doing what it's doing even with the new ownership. I just bought and installed a new Youtube video script for my site.

I think the main motive behind the acquisition is more towards video ad revenue rather than information accessibility. However, they had to pay a really high price for that along with many loopholes such as legal liability from copyright holders that could wipe out YouTube from existence like Napster. Another issue, is that copyright law is quite vague in terms of online interpretations and that could play a major role in Google’s legal liability. So, I would suggest that Google and YouTube spend some real time and money trying to convince these copyright holders to establish partnerships with them as they have with Universal and Sony. On another front, they are going to also motivate yahoo and microsoft to start advancing in their video services as well as possible acquisitions. If this becomes succesful, yahoo and msn are going to feel the pain of not taking action of acquiring youtube. Well, it is really the choices and the actions we take that really determine the success. Lets wait and see. Here is my take.
