I have a feeling this will remain free.

Gogole's mission is to make all information (including motion media) free and accessable from one source.

So assuming they maintain their "don't be evil" policy, I think it will remain free.

EDIT:

Can I charge for playback of my video?

Yes. Or you can allow users to play your video for free. This is totally up to you and your video distribution goals. As the content owner, you decide whether you'd like to give away your video for free or charge a price that you set for it. If you do charge a price, Google will take a small revenue share to cover some of our costs. If our costs to play your video on Google are extraordinary, we may charge users a fee (if you've specified zero as the price for your video) or take a larger revenue share of the price (if you've set a price greater than zero for your video) to cover some of these costs. For example, if you upload a high definition file that's 500 MB and it becomes extremely popular, we might charge users a fee instead of giving it to them for free or ask you for a higher percentage of the revenue from the price of the video. Please be assured, however, that we'll let you know before we add a price or charge a higher revenue share for your video.

...

Do I retain copyrights and other legal rights to my videos?

Yes. You retain all rights to your content. Google assumes no copyright to your material.

So I guess in a round about way they are maintaining their "don't be evil policy".

as tony montana said. "first you get the power then yuo get the money and then u get the women" . i dont know about the women part, but google are getting the power, so i am guessing when they reach the top of the mountain they will start charging.

Can you search for videos or not?

They make shit loads from advertising anyways, also from websites

Maybe they are plotting world domination

as tony montana said. "first you get the power then yuo get the money and then u get the women" . i dont know about the women part, but google are getting the power, so i am guessing when they reach the top of the mountain they will start charging.

Or as Ice T said “Money controls the world and that's it
And once you got it,then you can talk shit
Power”

Google Inc.'s first-quarter 2005 net income jumped nearly 600 percent to $369.2 million, or 29.4 percent of its $1.26 billion revenue for the period, according to results released yesterday.

I personally think it may be a test to see if a Google HD (ala Google Mail hacks) is possible ...

What do u mean

 

[McLake]

You can turn your gmail account into a HD by uploading files. Maybe they are trying to formalise this service and seeing if people will go for it (ie: put personal content on a service that searches it to display ads).

There is a program available that will make the gmail account appear as a removable drive in control panel.
