    Hi

    What about Video piracy, do you think companies allow their copyrighted video to be freely distributed and download able by everyone..

    Most popular videos that get attracted is pirated videos, because they are free, the rest of the videos are basically viral, they serve nothing more than that.

    How does online video help in meeting organizational objectives

    But tell me… video marketing is serious business only after 2010, before that it is just in the form of viral …
    Also.. in future my view is the line between text and video content will decrease.
