Despite Google’s best efforts, Google Video still ranks behind YouTube, MySpace and Yahoo in video traffic. And Microsoft just launched its own competitor in beta. But in doing a deal, would Google open itself to some serious legal exposure? In the last week, Forrester Research and Mark Cuban both predicted YouTube will get sued — and lose. And clearly, Google has some deep pockets. Also, how would YouTube mesh with Google Video? Killing YouTube’s brand and seperate site independence to me seems like a mistake.

But... if you look at what happened with the Casino Royale trailer, people actually prefer to watch trailers if they are uploaded officially (and placed in the paid slot for a day or so). The unoffially uploaded CR trailers have a few thousand views each, while the studio's one has >500,000. YouTube needs to continue to cut deals to put official content on (and charging the owners for the privilege), while content owners need to appreciate that this can help to grow entertainment brands around the world - e.g. the use of Back To The Future clips in Brokeback To The Future - still up after 8 months.

their best hope is the plaintiff is a major network/studio, but i’ve already said i think that is remote, too much risk in a public backlash from the blogosphere.

if they can cut a deal with a major network and at least APPEAR to be making strides in policing themselves they can always argue that this is uncharted territory and probably set some sort of standard by which all will be judged.

either way i wished them luck at every turn.

if i had another suggestion: buy a blue suit.

There are probably 10 reasons that YouTube is successful (good social software, the embed code, occasionally-decent user-generated content, etc.), but the #1 has always been the copyrighted content. Eventually, someone will sue them, and their number one asset will disappear. Can they recover? Maybe. Just like Napster maybe could've recovered.

Part of the beauty of YT is the simplicity and frictionless environment that they offer. If that diminishes, it might have a good chance of driving traffic elsewhere.
