> Google makes 6% of its revenue throgh Youtube, so saying 98% is from ads is wrong.
Doesn't Google make money on Youtube by showing ads?
YouTube also sells and rents movies.
I highly doubt even .5% of their revenue comes from that.
Google has ad revenue sources that are not Youtube. Like you said, Youtube represents only a small part of its revenue stream, but this doesn't mean its revenue stream is not dominated by selling ads.
well, afaik, youtube makes 100% of its money from ads
Not that it really matters, but they do rent movies
