Could YouTube fetch $1 billion?
Steve Safran August 24th, 2006
Sony’s acquisition of Grouper for $65 million has analysts scrambling to their abacuses (abaci?) to figure the market value of YouTube - a far-larger player in online video. Not that it’s for sale, but Aram Sinnreich, a managing partner at RadarResearch says “I wouldn’t be surprised to see (online video market leader) YouTube receive a bid of $1 billion. Whether the company is worth it is another question.”
