I just read this, and I think I just fully got it (it being Google’s whole video upload strategy) With all of the video uploads/hosting, storage, and infrastructure investments, Google just BECOMES the cable companies and/or satellite providers. Who needs to bother with those guys? Just get a Google DirectLine, and tap in at lightning-fast speeds to all sorts of free and paid content, on demand.
Am I the last one to figure this out?
