[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 773475, member: 199791"] So, they're going to make even more money than they already are (especially from youtube users who make money through partnership, then Google revoke their adsense account before they pay out and pocket the money made!!!), that'll be popular... :rolleyes: I think that they're probably going to offer a basic "free" version for most users, and if you want more, such as directions and whatnot, you have to buy into it, just as with Google Earth, you have the basic free version, and then there's the "Pro" version which has more features and clearer imagery, which you have to pay for of course, so it's already begun, they're just extending it to the web based maps service... :rolleyes: As for $ky, from what I've learned, they originally started out as free to air, claiming their money from advertisers, all you needed to do was buy a dish and a receiver and tuned in, then later they "merged" with BSB and that's when the trouble began and they started encrypting channel after channel... :confused: [/QUOTE]
