One thing I’ve always been told is that you need to interest a viewer within 30 seconds to get them to watch a whole video. Now between the 15 to 25 second mark, those people will be paying more attention to the ad instead of the content.

It's just like Google AdSense. If a video-blogger wants to earn money, he should be able to activate the Youtube ads which will show on youtube.com but that should also show on the embedded version of the video.</p> <p>Speech recognition should make it possible for Google to show very relevant ads.</p> Google can display ads for the content providers that want to earn money.

Speech recognition should make it possible for Google to show very relevant ads.

Alan, I would not refer to the huge amount of attention VideoEgg has recieved as a small benefit.

VideoEgg manages a large ad network made up of social networking sites. Google adopting this format means that VE just hit the jackpot.

A lot of people in the marketing community were paying attention to this announcement and nearly every single article I have looked at mentioned VideoEgg directly.

VideoEgg wins…

Sure, there may be some protest, but it is better than the alternative. Plus, the majority of UGC will not have ads on the site, just the partner ones, as you pointed out.</p> <p>I do think there are other models that are not ad-based. This will mostly have to do with quality, professional content, and access to exclusive content. To make an analogy, why would you go buy a $1.99 bottle of water when you have lovely tap water for FREE!?! :)</p> If users want content for free (which they overwhelmingly do for today’s web video), I think they have come to expect ads.
