I know Twitter is even thinking about a fee for commercial users. A recent article, I forget where said that patience is starting to run out over at Facebook as well.
When the business environment is this bad, there is much less enthusiasm to give everything away for free and lose money at the same time.
BTW, Youtube also sells a sort of internal Adwords that you can buy so a link to your video shows up when certain keywords are searched.
P.S. I'll guess they will have to encrypt all the streams because I can download all the videos as it is right now.
