Google already has Google Video. Buying out their main competition increases ad revenue, but it doesn't prevent startup sites.

In fact, it opens the door. I don't thing this is a good decision by Google.

It's definitely not going to reduce the number of video sites on the web by more than one.

Ah, you're looking at this from a purely business stand point - swallow your competition.

The problem is that google has become political.
