I really believe they will have a solution very soon. For example : I am an independent producer that for the past year and a half has being executing the Biggest Innovation in TV Marketing. (Read More About it Here) http://soulstation.tv/soulstation/article.php?story=20060627172130646 The Online Reality Show I am executing at the moment has to do about "HOW" I could get rid of Commercials for TV and solely get Funded on Product Placement. This might sound a bit weird since the reality about Programing is that without Commercials is not Possible. But the Real Reality behind this is that I am just an answer to all the Brands Nightmares since TiVo touched the market. Getting back to the subject, YouTube is in the Middle of this Techonological Contreversy that very soon they will need to answer to. The answer for YouTube is to make the steps necessary to invite and promote Non-Commercial Independent Producers, as myself, that are already funded by Brands to give out this High Quality Productions for Free..and if they make the investment in technology to compete with TV Quality I guarantee they will be around for a long time. So when you see "Soul Station TV" on your DishNetwork or Local TV Channel remember you read this here and it directed you to here : http://soulstation.tv/soulstation/ YouTube is the Product to all this accelarating technology.

They're losing staggering amount of money in bandwidth and hosting. And without question their current ad-supported model isn't working. To all advertisers (other than those focused on brand exposure) YouTube is not presenting a valued proposition. What do they need to do? Become an affiliate? Paid model? Syndicate their content to partners? No one has found the answer for this yet. I think the key question to ask is how does YouTube become profitable and when.

I was talking to some people at http://www.rackspace.com. YouTube has over 100 servers there and it's not their only hosting company. RackSpace is typically $500/$1,000 per month per server. So you can see the tremendous outpouring of money it takes for such an operation. - Bryan http://www.BryanCFleming.com They should be able to keep scaling.

Good advertising income means having the ability to locate caching/redundant servers in various regions to speed up performance. They're on the cusp of something huge. Don't be surprised if YouTube adds a Media Center plug-in and finds other ways to bring their content straight to the home entertainment screen (set top box a la Akimbo, MCE/Myth plug-in, Tivo hack, etc).
