Mark's beef with YouTube could be called pivoltal if not historic. The fact is that YouTube is a free black market and no company can compete as long as they do not obey the law and throw their Google money weight around. It's worse than anti-competitive, it sets the stage for destroying business in age of digital communication. If any company can come along and give everyone else's products away, then get bought by a megacorp which still breaks the law then no intellectual property is safe. If you don't prosecute Google/YouTiube oir at least hold them accountable for moderating all uploaded content (as a studio would be expected to do) you might as well get rid of copyrights and trademarks altogether. If you don't then you are unfairly creating a monopoly by allowing pirates to do whatever they want while businesses are not held accountable for the same behavior. There is no defensible position for Google. What they are doing is illegal and bad for everyone.

Very funny...
Hate to say it, I agree with Mark though. There is better video services out there and since Google took over most of the videos I watched or bookmarked have been taken down...
