  When I see these kinda posts, I always wonder,

  - just how many 8GB ram servers do you actually think youtube runs?

  - how many petabytes of capacity do they actually have?

  - if your revenue from advertising is more or less going to be between a ballpark range, how do you manage ever increasing storage costs?
