maybe if that's true , they will be survive.....

1. How do you define VOD is dead, as long as their is premium content for which people are willing to pay then VOD is their.

What is happening in this space is same thing that happened with TV. Their are 3 models

1. People will pay for ad free and compelling content
2. People are willing to watch some advertisement for free content
3. Then their is a mix (you pay and still you watch ad)

Have you guys checked band width prices lately? The amounts of money a main stream advertiser will pay for CPM on these ads are insane. So the you tube model will work, the major issue you tube has is with the content. For example when you send a tape to America?s funniest videos and if they want to air it, you sign a 25 page release contract, get a lawyer involved etc, well you don?t do that on you tube. Now that?s the worrying part, when people smell money, lawyers move in.

Trust me on this, I make a living out of this hahaha61514;

Let me rephrase what I said, VOD is not dead, the traditional porn VOD companies are dying.

I see more than a few outlets on the horizon that will make the major porn studios clamor to get the videos out that way. A token system is much scarier than plain DVD rental at the right price. These new video delivery services will make it more appealing to get the movies.

Oh, and we are talking the pay per view systems for porn like Veoh.

Gotta love branding.

Xlogger, I'm not fighting with you. I'm just trying to make you understand that you REALLY have no idea about what you're talking about. You're some 20 something idiot that thinks they know everything.

Do yourself a favor pick up this book and call me when you're done

Ad agencies are looking all over the place nowadays for ingenious ways to get their client's ads noticed. The male 18-34 year old demographic is very difficult to attain and that is just what these video sites target. It's really the next best thing to porn sites, but you know those big companies won't put their clean fingers in our dirty pool LOL!

P.S. Sleazydream IS cool, if you met him you would figure out that what he does on the board is for entertainment and reaction. Get your head of your ass LOL!

Chio, this isn't 1999 and we're not watching Startupdot dot com LOL!

Sure VC's take risks but they are not throwing money away... If they are, please give me all the VC's names and contact numbers you can find. I have lots of crazy ideas that I know don't make any money that they can throw money at LMAO!

50 SNL skits uploaded ;)

I think a lot are missing the point... it's all about traffic :)

You build a site that do top 50 alexa in a certain niche (in youtube case video casting) and you wait for the buyout.

Yahoo or Google are not buying your technology but mostly your network of traffic. This is why they paid over 500 millions for myspace and that they will pay again if youtube can make it.

This is a good thread
