Cuban Bets on Youtube Downfall

Mark Cuban has a pretty interesting post about the decline of Youtube, where he argues there are 2 main reasons for the site’s success free hosting of video content for third party sites (like this one!) and Copyrighted video content. And just like Napster with music, Youtube will fold under the ever-growing pressure of content rights owners and major media companies.
Cuban claims, “Take away all the copyrighted material and you take away most of Youtube's traffic. Youtube turns into a hosting company with a limited video portal. Like any number of competitors out there that decided to follow copyright law”
