Is YouTube going off??

Postby Apex » Tue Feb 13, 2007 1:32 pm

Someone told me that YouTube is either going off the net or will soon require paid registration or something like that to access.

I know very little about YouTube, don't have time to research this.  Does anyone know anything about this?

Plus on almost every video there is a comment saying something along the lines of...

"in 1945 a girl was murdered and.....   ...repost this in ## videos to get your soul back"

;D

Seen those, but more like the F*** comments. All of the big hit videos are full of spam and troll posts.

No kidding... if you look at the Most Viewed page or whatever it's called, about 99% of it is copyrighted material... seems a lot of people like to post entire anime series in installments, presumably to be watched by people who already have them on disc or have seen them... weird.
