Google could if they wanted spend some more money and resources to try and edge out youtube for the #1 spot but youtube wil still be around and whoever buys them will still have tons of ad inventory and google will still want to be involved in this action too. Why let yahoo, MSN, or ask or any others have that slice of pie too.
Remember myspace was for sale for $500 million or less before Newscorp purchased it. Google just did an ad deal with them for $900 million so.......
