Could YouTube’s Potential Revenue Dominate the MediaScape?

Categories: IPTV, VideoPosted on September 7th, 2006

A few weeks ago there was discussion on YouTube Stats revealed. I made some general calculations suggesting they will double their storage needs by January, and then every four months after.

Fred, a Venture Capitalist in New York has made some projections on the revenue model of YouTube. He suggests that they could generate $440 million dollars a year.

I’ve been doing some thinking about how the Internet and TV will marry, YouTube could be an actual channel in your living room. More of my thoughts on IPTV here.

I think with broadband becoming more pervasive and the whole social networking phenom exploding you are going to see the revenue of sites such a s youtube exploding.. I think the biggest revenue will be realized however by those who can most succesfully integrate and seamlessly provide the end to end blogging, podcasting, social networking, vlogging, etc. experience. To date that has been MySpace and you see them even making more of a play at the video portion as well recently.
