YT isn't going to disappear. Did myspace?

Yes...?

Not literally, but in many other ways they absolutely fell off a cliff.

... wait, MySpace is still around?

Not really. The brand is, but it's a completely different service now.

You can log in with your Facebook account now. Tells you pretty much all you need to know.

I wouldn't say it's completely different. It certainly is positioned in a completely different way but one can still log in and view their old pages and content.

Yes. And thanks for that. There are older bands that still have their music on myspace and nowhere else.

Existing in a vacuum != existence in reality.

YT could disappear, but you'd have to pour a _lot_ of money into it.

Isn't that exactly what Google tried before giving in and buying YouTube?

... Are you saying we should buy YouTube?
