I was looking for some 100W LEDs to use in my exiting 20W lights to spread the dissipation better and hopefully create very long lasting lights. I bought some from two different ebay sellers based in China and deliberately tried two different price ranges to see how price affected quality.

Hacker News Stories and Comments

Youtube ads have a cost of between $.10 and $.30 per view, according to googling "youtube ad cost"

An arbitrary youtube video [1] is 56.69 megabytes (7m36s of 720p MP4). AWS outbound bandwidth, which I'm told is outrageously expensive, costs $0.050 per GB, so a single view costs $0.0028 to serve.

Seems to me bandwidth isn't an insurmountable problem - if you can get the mix and volume of viewers, creators and advertisers on board, and make $.10-$.30 per view, and you can keep your overheads for engineering, support and moderation low.

There is something insane with your numbers. Probably the .1/3 per-view (per 1K views maybe) but too lazy to find out.

You always forget the huge(?) amount of un/low monetizable content/traffic/countries.
