|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board What YouTube and newspapers have in common... David Brooks, Photographer San Diego | CA | USA | Posted: 2:25 PM on 04.20.09 ->> Very interesting article since it seems that Youtube, Facebook and Flickr are invincible.... "YouTube's troubles are surprisingly similar to those faced by newspapers. Just like your local daily, the company is struggling to sell enough in advertising to cover the enormous costs of storing and distributing its content." http://www.slate.com/id/2216162 "Advertisers don't like paying very much to support homemade photos and videos. As a result, the economics of user-generated sites are even more crushing than those of the newspaper business." and even more interesting- "For all the frenzy surrounding citizen-produced media, the content that seems to do best online is the same stuff that did well offline—content produced by professionals."
