If you want, I’ll host your videos for $1.3 Billion
Wow.
Google Inc. snapped up YouTube Inc. for $1.65 billion Monday in deal that catapults the Internet search leader to a leading role in the online video revolution. The all-stock acquisition unites one of the Internet’s marquee companies with one of its rapidly rising stars.
The price makes YouTube, a still-unprofitable startup, by far the most expensive purchase made by Google during its eight-year history.
Seriously. I’ll host anything, including snuff films. I will host nude videos of Rosie O’Donnell masturbating with a cheese grater, I don’t care. For $1.65 billion I’ll hold the cheese grater.

I STILL cannot figure out what they were objecting to. It’s frigging adorable and no pengweens were harmed.
Some stupid twit at the Tube got it in their head you were torturing the poor little thing or something. Or, they REALLY HATE PENGUINS!
