Remember when I wrote about the transient nature of the Web? It might be happening to YouTube. According to Business 2.0, YouTube is facing a rebellion among the formerly faithful. What will that do their rates? More importantly, where is the flock heading next?

A handful of users doesn't really make a rebellion, does it? Besides, YouTube just got aprox. 750,000 viewers of the Colbert vid in the last 4 days before CSpan made them yank it. How many new users will come out of that? I'm growing increasingly fond of YouTube, I hate to say. FireAnt.tv seems way cooler.

Interesting that it's come to this. I always wondered how effective YouTube's business model could be, and now that they're trying to bow to any and all outside influence from the MPAA or the like, they're just alienating their user base.
