smashface · 10-06-2006, 11:03 AM

I think bandwidth costs were at $1million/month a couple of months ago.

Never heard about buying your competitors? You should talk to mister Bill Gates, he earned like 5$ with buying up the competition.

wdsguy · 10-06-2006, 11:21 AM

thats a big chunk of change.

I believe what they are trying to accomplish is commonly known as a Monopoly

last week Newsweek mentioned their bandwidth bill was about $1.2mil if I remember correctly.

I'm confused here. Myspace, which controls roughly 10% of internet traffic, was just bought up for $500mil?

marketsmart · 10-06-2006, 05:29 PM

thats a ton of money! good for the guy selling it

Doctor Dre · 10-06-2006, 05:33 PM

Google is probably the only compagny able too make a good ammount of money from that.

Chris · 10-06-2006, 05:33 PM

i go to a hostpial for a day and this is what fucking happens

gecko · 10-06-2006, 06:44 PM

That's a lot of money passing hands

Vitasoy · 10-06-2006, 07:04 PM

I hope they don't make drastic changes

sniperwolf · 10-06-2006, 09:52 PM

Whoa! That's the shiznit.. alot of money in there..

DaddyHalbucks · 10-06-2006, 10:19 PM

That's pretty rich for a business based on copyright violation.

squishypimp · 10-06-2006, 10:23 PM

i think this is going to be another broadcast.com blunder like Yahoo had. YouTube is a great resource and a highly publicized site however from an interview I heard awhile ago the site brings in very little (if any) profit. The bandwidth bills are huge and the advertising prices are very slim.

hopefully google can get it turned around, but im not sure if it will ever be able to justify the purchase price of 1.6 billion.

Well, if you think about it, all of Google is based on ripping off everyone's content.

You should work for Fox News. You're basing your facts on rumors. Read this:

They are NOT buying it. They are just talking about it. Huge difference.

pornpf69 · 10-06-2006, 10:52 PM

why would they buy it if they already have a similar website?
