Post Google to buy YouTube for $1.65 bn

Quote:
The acquisition means that Google will likely become the second most visited site on the Internet with 101 million unique visitors, behind Yahoo Inc's 106.7 million visitors but ahead of Microsoft's MSN Internet division's 98.5 million, according to Nielsen Net Ratings.

Probably you have missed this line there on msn news followed link as above; Google is going to "compete with traditional television as a viewing media. It also gives Google a massive trove of new ad-generating content, and allows it to offer a greater range of products to advertisers".

Another giant step by Google in trying to take over the online world. If Google does merge YouTube with it's own service Google Videos, then that would be the biggest online videos hub to date.
