Not surprising since I don't think Micro$oft has ever had an original idea. Windows was copied after the Apple OS; Office from WordPerfect, Lotus, and others; Internet Explorer from Netscape; XBox from Playstation, Nintendo; Zune from I-Pod, etc., etc. Their business practices absolutely suck, their history of bringing products to market long before they're ready with constant patches, updates, Service Packs, etc. and their constant tricks aimed at maintaining their monopoly (Office 97 .docx and .xlsx file formats). And now it looks like the highly touted and long awaited Vista is destined to become the next Windows Me.

I am surprised that Google hasn't found a way to make it profitable...

They should just tag a quick 10-second commercial right before the video plays, or they can just put a product logo at the bottom of each video.
