You wanna know why YouTube is getting more and more fail? Because Google doesn't care about it. It's only losing them money. That's why they're going to start charging you to view videos. >_>
Sauce?

What? That makes no sense. Youtube is pretty much run by its community, so I wouldn't see that happening. I mean, Youtube would be nothing without all the people uploading their videos. >.>

it makes perfect sense, since advertisements are obviously getting more and more common, from what I've seen.

google is losing money from hosting the videos, and unless they have some way to make revenue, they're just getting the income from advertisements/etc, which I doubt is enough for the amount of space the videos probably take up, and the ability to make them run smoothly.

if google's losing money, I don't doubt that happening. however, no source = wut.

ALSO, Tye hates Google.c
I hate Google for a reason. I used to love Google. I went as far to say that I was a Google fanboy. However, Google has become progressively worse, completely contradicting their own slogan, "Don't be evil". They've earned my hate.
 
I hate the "like" system, it's terrible. I wish they would just stick with the stars. And I don't see anything wrong with Google... I help them take over the world by using them as my primary search engine! :D
 
I wonder how it would work if they had a basic rating system (Like and Dislike) And then a more advanced system (star system).
 
Liking/Disliking videos is redundant with the current Fave system still in place. It should simply be rating system and nothing more, giving you a list of videos you liked is stupid when right below it is a "Favorite" tab.

Google should do away with one or the other.
