How Baidu Beat Google and Won China

hmmm, no mention that Google actually had >50% search market share in China during 2001-2002.

Badiu' share only start to sky rocket after:

1) people in China having lag and latency issue surfing Google's website. 2) Baidu's deep linking of pirated mp3 music files. In effect Baidu acts like thepiratebay.com and the China's youths defected en mass to Baidu.
