Google to buy YouTube @ $1.6 billion?

だんだん信憑性を増してきましたね（汗）

Google VideoとYouTube合体の日も近いのでしょうか。。。

Completely Unsubstantiated Google/YouTube Rumor

We know that YouTube has had informal talks with a number of companies about acquisition in the $1.5 - $2 billion range. And I suspect Google won’t be daunted by the prospect of dealing with a ton of pissed off copyright holders.

WSJ reporting on Google YouTube talks as well

The Wall St. Journal is reporting
this morning that those talks are in fact underway, according to “a
person familiar with the matter.” Journal writer Keven Delaney writes
that the talks are in early stages and could break off. The Journal
reported the same price tag that Michael did earlier, $1.6 billion.
