NoTube?

Mark Cuban says we shouldn't get too used to having YouTube around -- it's going to go the way of Napster:
With the MGM vs Grokster ruling, its just a question of when Youtube will be hit with a charge of inducing millions of people to break copyright laws , not if . . . .

Take away all the copyrighted material and you take away most of Youtube’s traffic.
(Via the WSJ Law Blog.) Take away that traffic, and does the remaining business cover the liability for inducing copyright violation?

I guess I thought that less of the content on YouTube was copyrighted than was the case with Napster, but perhaps that's just the way I use it.
